I have even looked it up and nothing is working! I'm trying to run Minecraft and i says Failed to open java virtual machine and that is the only reason i'm trying to get java going for me. I'm using a Windows XP!

Why were you trying to uninstall Java 6 Update 31 anyway? What you really needed to do was to install Java 6 Update 34 so it can overwrite and replace and update it.
