Shahzad,

A few pointers:

If you locate the relevant services via the services applet you can
specify files to run on various events including:

First Failure
Second Failure
Subsequent Failures

In addition to specifying a file to execute you can indicate you want
the service automatically restarted.

If you go with the batch file route, it’s just a matter of using net
start with the appropriate service name e.g.

Net start “ColdFusion MX Application Server”

You can find the name of the service name by right clicking on the
appropriate service and looking at the “general” tab.

There are already batch files provided for stopping and starting MX
services:

Start.bat
Stop.bat

Located here:

{cfroot}\bin

How does that batch file know when to be executed. Or shall I schedule
every 1 min? which I don't feel is right. Because I want to start the
restart the services whenever it crashes not just one off. Also can I
have a copy of that batch file (to stop or restart IIS/CFMX services) if
someone has written????

Thanks
Shaz

Seems easy enough - write a batch file that requests a file from your 
webserver, and if it doesn't get it, stops the service.
I use CygWin for stuff like this.
