The Can't create I/O event handle is the error you'll see with Meinberg's vegas-v2 when there is another ntpd.exe hanging around. Keep in mind the message claiming the service has stopped is a lie, it is coming from the service as it is about to stop. My QPC releases as well as official versions starting with 4.2.4p7RC1 and 4.2.5P160 will give a differrent error in that case, likely complaining about being unable to bind to address 127.0.0.1:123 for example, possibly with a different IP address but definitely with port 123. That doesn't explain why the first process failed, but it does hint it is not terminating cleanly after failing. Martin's suggestion to try a debug binary with tracing enabled is probably the next fruitful approach.
