Setting up a Windows slave using a default install of Windows Server 2008R2 x64 involves a number of steps. I've finally gotten to the point where I can do it successfully on multiple machines. If you are just having the problem of x64 and x86 java, then you probably forgot the workaround that allows the Jenkins client app find the Java x64. As someone else said, you can specify a java version in the xml, but that assumes that you have already connected. To start the process, after you've installed java x64, adjusted the registry key permissions etc, etc, do the following
