tomcat 5.5.9 installlation doesn't seem to work

Hi,
I downloaded the Tomcat 5.5.9 beta and unzipped it. I get a message saying that it failed to install Tomcat Service and gives me the option to abort it or ignore it. I chose ignore and it finished unzipping. Then it shows a progress bar about service being installed. When all this finished I did the http://localhost:8080<http://localhost:8080/> and the Tomcat 5.0.28 main page came up. I don't understand how this happened. I have checked out every option I can find and nothing seems wrong. I also changed to JRE 5.0 Update 2. Any thoughts on this?

It appears you have two versions on your machine. And since you have not 
changed the defaults you cannot run both at the same time. Shut down the 
5.0.28 version and try starting the 5.5.9 version. OR change the server xml 
to have the 5.5.9 listen on different ports. If the 5.0.28 is also installed 
as a service, there is a good chance this was the cause of the error.
