Though what port you have to use may be determined by your local networking. The configuration documents for TDS all reside in ${TOMCAT_HOME}/content/thredds. Some default content should have been copied in to that directory automatically the first time you started up the TDS. So make sure that directory exists and contains a catalog.xml file. If not you need to make sure that the Tomcat process has permission to create and write to that directory. I don't really know Windows users/permissions very well but I would guess you might have to run it with administrator permissions.
