If you enabled SSL in apache, on startup random number generator must be seeded ... rest you know :-) But telling about RAND_screen() function, second part of it (readscrean()) is not executed when process is run as windows service. Configure Apache to run as service and there is a chance that if hang occurs in readscrean() (which will not be executed) this may work.
