Tim, Thanks for the feedback. Thinking back, I believe that I ran the service without issue after installing 3.3.0 and pywin32-218, and once satisfied that everything was working on the new release, went and uninstalled Python 3.2.3 and pywin-217. I think it was THEN that the service wouldn't function, so I'm (almost) certain that Win 2003 isn't the issue.
