It’s difficult for us to comment when you’re using a third party installer for 
Tomcat.  I’d suggest using the standard Tomcat install process (i.e. download & 
unzip) instead.

   http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/RUNNING.txt

If you’d prefer an installer, Tomcat also has a Windows installer.  It is 
listed as "32-bit/64-bit Windows Service Installer” on the downloads page.  
Instructions for the installer are here.

  http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/setup.html#Windows 

If you have a problem with either install method, just post to the list and 
someone will be able to help.

What specifically do you need?  Tomcat is not a full JEE container.  It 
implements the Servlet, JSP, EL and WebSockets specs.

  http://tomcat.apache.org/whichversion.html

If you need more then you could look at something like Apache Tomee or Apache 
Geronimo.
