How to run matlab 7 for 32 bit in a 64 bit windows system?

Whenever i start the matlab icon, i get the following error: Runtime Error Program:C:\Program Files (x86)\MATLAB7\bin\win32\MATLAB.exe This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team fro more information.

Also,behind that it shows a "error starting desktop" window with lots of java issues listed.

How do i resolve this issue?

You know that MATLAB7, also known as R14, is a decade old?

Which operating system are you trying to run it on? Some of those old versions need patches to work on newer operating systems.
