Start the service, and attach the debugger to it. That obviously means that you will miss the startup code. It's what I hate about windows services :( Usually I make the program twice: once as a normal program (to debug) and once as a service.

The latter sentence means something like: Service process cannot connect to service manager. That is usually a permissions problem.
