How To Upgrade JDK used by Tomcat 4.1

Hello,
I need to update/upgrade the JDK used by Tomcat for an application we
purchased, because of the daylight saving time issue.  I can't seem to
find any documentation on the steps that need to be taken to upgrade the
JVM used by Tomcat.  The installation instructions for Tomcat simply say
to install a JDK and then add an environmental variable called JAVA_HOME
and set it to the directory where the JDK is installed.  However, when I
checked the JAVA_HOME variable was not defined on the system.  If
someone could point me to the documentation or tell me what steps to
take I'd appreciate it.  Also, is there a way to find out which JVM
Tomcat is actually using?  
 
System configuration is: Windows 2003 Std, IIS, and Tomcat 4.1, JRE
1.4.2_03.
 
Thank you,
Tomcat/Apache neophyte

how instances of java have you got installed on your system?
if it's only the one above, that's what it's using.
