Ok, I determined this wasn't related to "lack of privileges" but rather the dependency files needed to be loaded and registered first. Is there a way to tell the install to install and register these dependency files (DLLs, etc) first?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Unable to install Services due to lack of privileges 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.
