Is your operating system 64bit? You can find out by running "dxdiag" (first press Windows+R and then type in dxdiag). If so, uninstall all versions of Java currently on your machine and install the latest Java 8 (currently Java 8u40) 64bit from Oracle's download page and choose Windows x64.

If your OS is 32bit, hold tight. We are re-evaluating forcing 64bit.
 
Here's where you're looking in dxdiag:

This has been temporarily reverted. Moving forward it may be re-instated because it results in a much better experience. For that reason I recommend updating to a 64bit operating system if possible.

I'm still unable to use it on my 32bit laptop.

So what exactly is happening? The new guidelines are available here

When I click sign-in it says: "To ensure best performance, please update to the latest 64bit java."

Unless I'm missing something, it won't let me pass this point. I've even tried clicking sign-in again.

Are you sure you're not running a 64bit OS? Follow my steps above to be sure.

thanks cloud. your awesome! I am with you 100% for a better performance. you should also think about have a 32bit version available if needed. i would sacrfice a little performance for just the use of the bot than no use at all.
