Are you setting user environment variables or system environment variables when you change JAVA_HOME? I think the NT service will use the system environment, since it's not necessarily associated with a user. Anyway, I would recommend against using the service actually. The batch files used to start/stop tomcat are simple to run and I have to restart A LOT. Good luck!
