-- 1. has surely nothing to do with Java version. For 1.0.1 Java 7 is
ok.

-- 2. If type() does not work at all, then paste() will not work either, 
since internally it fills the clipboard and then issues a type("v", Key.CTRL) 

-- 3. there have been various situations, where on Windows type() was blocked generally or within specific applications (the feature internally used is Java Robot class). Running the script as administrator in most of these situations helped.
So you might check your Windows setup about policies, that restrict then usage of virtual keyboard input (do not ask me, where to look for that, but you might have experts at hand)

Title:
  [1.0.1] WinXP: type() not working at all

Status in Sikuli:
  New

Bug description:
  I have just installed Sikuli on the 5th system in our company.  We are
  using it to automate some tasks that have to be done every day exactly
  the same way and are easily enough scripted with Sikuli.

  It is on this 5th and final system that I ran into trouble.  There is
  nothing that I can tell which is different on this system than any
  other that I have installed it on previously.  Windows XP 32 bit
  operating system.  Java 7 installed, Python 2.74 installed, and Sikuli
  1.0.1.

  So now, on this one, the type() function does not seem to work at all.
  Any of the other visual functions seem to work perfectly.  It is just
  this type() function I am having trouble with.   The log in the IDE
  shows that the command was sent (example: [log]TYPE "www.google.com".
  Can anyone shed any light on this problem?  I will be happy to provide
  any additional information that is requested.  Thanks in advance.
