You can try

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=824344 "How to debug Windows services"


Specifically the section:

"When a service starts, the service communicates to the Service Control Manager how long the service must have to start (the time-out period for the service). If the Service Control Manager does not receive a "service started" notice from the service within this time-out period, the Service Control Manager terminates the process that hosts the service. This time-out period is typically less than 30 seconds. If you do not adjust this time-out period, the Service Control Manager ends the process and the attached debugger while you are trying to debug. To adjust this time-out period, follow these steps: "

ServicesPipeTimeout

However - if you have a svc which isnt starting , its better to figure out why IMO

Thanks for the reply, Joe. I am referring to the the timeout of a service
on startup. (ie. "The service did not respond in a timely manner"

Thanks,
James

Do mean timeout for how long a service is allowed to live during a
shutdown
before it is just killed? If so that is under the key
hklm\system\currentcontrolset\control in the value
WaitToKillServiceTimeout.

Does anybody know where the service timeout period is set for NT services?

Also, is there a global setting for time outs for all services?

Any help would be appreciated - thanks.
