What permissions does it have? Are you running it with admin privileges? That
error looks like one I've seen before which usually indicated some kind of
security issue because it could not access an object.

Thank you! I have tried this and I get the same result that I have had
using other options... the service starts and tries to run the
VBoxHeadless.exe with all the proper parameters. Watching the
TaskManager, I see the headless program start and then stop almost
immediately. Upon checking the log for the service, it says that
VBoxHeadless stopped with an exit code of -2147024809. I have looked
this up and cannot find any useful information.

Have you tried this one?

"The NT Wrapper allows standard Windows 32 bit applications or scripts
to be run
as a NT service in Windows NT/2K/XP/2003/Vista"
The "lite" version which runs a SINGLE program as a service (would be
fine for VBox) is FREEWARE.
