Just a quick follow-up...

I eventually found the problem (by pure luck). Windows Server is weird!
Even though we logged in with an Administrator privileged account, when
you open the standard Command Prompt window, it is NOT admin privileged.
Thus the error. We had to right click the Command Prompt shortcut and
select "Run as Administrator" - then the service registered and ran fine.
