I can't see any difference in their implementation or config files. I'm receiving the following messages when attempting to sta开发者_开发百科rt the service after installing it with InstallUtil:

The service is not responding to the control function

more help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2186

NET HELPMSG 2186:

If anyone has any thoughts and/or suggestions, they're GREATLY appreciated.

Start by checking for any system/application events using EventVwr. The service could be crashing on startup or failing because of permissions for that particular service.

Try uninstalling and re-installing the service, with a reboot in between.

Finally, do you have the MS Application verifier installed? If so, try to uninstall and reinstall it.
