I had a problem like that when my settings in registry were wrong (after using the configure Tomcat program). Try:
1) Make sure you set the JAVA_HOME in the environment variables.
ok
2) Make sure that in configure tomcat you have java in the java VM box
configure doens't work too...
3) uncheck Auto check box
someone told to check it.....
4) Make sure that the VM options are valid. Try removing everything that you might have added, I think the default is (With your directories of course):
-Dcatalina.home="C:\Tomcat 5.0"
-Djava.endorsed.dirs="C:\Tomcat 5.0\common\endorsed"
-Xrs
Start Tomcat service and see if it works.
