  1. Set up CATALINE_HOME = your tomcat Location
  2. JAVA_HOME = your java (Version 6 or Seven).
  3. Path = Same JAVA_HOME Java version path til bin.
  4. At final run the startup.bat

Go to the installation folder of apache tomcat in your case as you said its

C:\Program Files (x86)\apache-tomcat-8.0.9\bin and double click the startup.bat

Then go to web browser and type http://localhost:8080 that should do the work

You need jdk1.7 + to run tomcat 8, if you are using jdk1.6, you need tomcat 7-.
See this: http://tomcat.apache.org/whichversion.html

This make me remember back in collage, it took me 2 days to finish jdk/tomcat hello world, :) , what a good time it is.

Just make sure, open a command line, input java --version to check whether you jdk is configured well, and which version it is in use. Just to be sure, in some case you need to re-login or reboot to make your new configured jdk work.

Believe me, if you configured jdk well, you don't need to change anything of the tomcat, just unzip it, and start it, it would work, unless the port 8080 is already taken.
