Thank You.
Actually the error is this:
[javac] javac: invalid target release: 1.5
Which version of java are you using?
Here is the version of Java that I'm using.
C:Documents and SettingsCompaq_Administrator>java -version
java version "1.6.0_05-ea"
Java™ SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_05-ea-b05)
Java HotSpot™ Client VM (build 1.6.0_05-ea-b05, mixed mode, sharing)
Try to get a version that is not ea (early access).
Could I get a link to the java download file
oh and sorry for me being total noob
Here is the link:
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
You need JDK 6 Update 3.
oh and sorry for me being total noob
Come on, everyone was a noob at some point in time. ;)
Hey, well I'm back. I got some errors. I think I need to redo the Environment Variables.
Can you tell me what problems there are and a rough idea of how to fix it. Thanks. 
And again Thanks for the download link.

Seems that either the directory c:projectsjmetarget does not exist, or the system cannot overwrite the file jme.jar, either way after correcting it, it should work fine. 
Well there was a jme folder in the main jme folder so I'm puzzled. I took the target file out of the duplicate jme file and placed it into the main jme file. The Compiling worked im just wondering if I got it correct because I tried the First jme test which is the Dynamic Smoker. I haven't tried any other tests.
Here is the Compiling Results:

Out of curiosity, why are you not using an IDE like Eclipse or Netbeans and save the trouble of compiling and running?
Uh okay. I didn't really know that you should use that easier method than following the guide. Thanks I'll try it out.
