JDK a generic term for the software that programmers need to make Java
programs. These Java programs might run on your computer, or your cell
phone, or on web servers for large businesses.
J2SDK is a specific JDK used only for developping programs for personal
computers (i.e. not cell phones and not web services).
J2RE is the software that the *USER* needs to run a Java program.
So unless you are making your own Java programs, you only need the JRE
(or J2RE), not the JDK.
It sounds like your program BDK (I don't know what that is), is looking
for a JRE but it cannot find one.
I recommend you try removing all your JDK and JREs, and then redownload
the JRE and re-installing it on a clean system without any old versions of
JDK or JRE to interfere.
