You don't need the cmd file. Just tell the corrective action to run
perl.exe and put 'D:\scripts\FM_Restart\fmstart.pl' in the command-line
parameters field. Also, make sure you're not using any mapped or
subst'ed drives, since SYSTEM won't have access to them when it runs the
script.

My 2 cents (and I am *not* an expert!):
The contents of the CMD file won't show why it didn't start. You need to
troubleshoot the failure action. My first thought is what account
privilege does the service run under and is it capable of running your
script?
