Q: 

installing netbeans says no compatible Java found

what do I need to install, the SDK?

my program files folder has a java/jre6 installed?

+3  A: 

You need the JDK. You can get it here.

You could also have downloaded NetBeans and the JDK together.

I like the bundle myself I keep it archived on a thumb drive just in case I need to set up on a new/strange computer.

+3  A: 

Just install the JDK or the JDK + NetBeans Bundle, the JRE isn't enough to compile java. Don't worry its all free here
