Thanks,,

     I got Tomcat working with 32-bit JVM.(with additional work as mentioned 
below) 
     
     Installed 32-bit JVM, downloaded apache-tomcat-6.0.26-windows-x86.zip and 
extracted to "c:\apache\".

     I tried running the $CATALINA_HOME\bin\startup.bat. It started the console 
and i was able to access the index page on my localhost

     But when i tried to register Tomcat as Service by running "service.bat" it 
failed. 
Copying "msvcr71.dll" from $JRE_HOME\jre6\bin into $CATALINA_HOME\bin\ solved 
my problem. Now i can register Tomcat as a Service by clicking on 
"service.bat". 

     Any idea on why i am in need of this dll here..

warm regards
karthick
