Access denied starting service

Hello I created my own NT service using Microsofts page: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;137890 This uses INSTSRV.exe and SRVANY.exe to create a custom service.
The problem is when I go to start the service I get: Error 005: Access is denied. I am logged in as the Administrator and the Administrator can start and stop other services.
Anyone got any ideas? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

All I did was started and stopped the 'empty' service. I don't know why it worked, but it works now......
