Export the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services registry key after using both approaches and diff them. That will let you see what the differences are and maybe whether the MSI service support will work. That said, as long as it works as expected in other programs like Explorer and the Services snap-in, abandoning native MSI just to make MSConfig happy seems a bad bargain. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
