Does the user you are installing the service to run under have the
LogOnAsService right? That would prevent your service from starting.
you can see the set of users with this right granted under
Administrative Tools > Local Security Policy.msc and then Local
Policies > User Rights Assignment > Log On as Service
You can grant it using the user element in the wix util
schema/extension if this is the problem.
