Does the server jvm.dll you're copying come from the exact same build
and platform (32- vs 64-bit) as the JRE?
You would think that would be sufficient, but if you do a detailed
comparison of the files in a public JRE against those in a JDK's private
JRE you'll see lots of differences, including the contents of various
*.jar files. (For example, rt.jar from the JDK is 4 MB larger than the
one in the JRE.) I don't know why the two sets of jars should be
different, but they are, and it may be pertinent.
Can you launch the server mode with "java -server -version"? (Note that
the -server option here applies only to the launcher, it's not done that
way when running as a service.)
What happens when you set JAVA_OPTS=-server and start Tomcat with
startup.bat?

Verify it's done properly by changing it in the GUI and see the effect
it has on the registry settings for Tomcat.

You should set JAVA_HOME only for a JDK. The non-service scripts expect
JRE_HOME for a JRE-only setup, but the service.bat script ignores that
(possibly because a Windows JRE doesn't include the server mode or more
likely because someone forgot to update this script when the JRE_HOME
check was added to the other scripts).
