Long posts are much preferred to short post that have to be guessed at to understand.

On Windows, you should not have to set the CLASSPATH variable yourself.  If it wasn't there, you likely don't have the Java runtime installed. (The "jdk" is the Java Developer's Kit; you won't need that unless you are developing Java apps.)

Delete the CLASSPATH you added and install the latest Java runtime from http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp

Use the Windows Explorer to find the HardwareSimulator.bat file and double-click on it.

You can create a shortcut to HardwareSimulator.bat on your desktop for convenience. Do not move or copy HardwareSimulator.bat itself.

Someone with a Mac will need to address those specific issues.
