I have window XP 2003 server, which is placed in a room where no one can enter to logon it.

for monitoring some applications I created a consol application myServer.exe, which dont have any UI, I want that this application (e.g., myServer.exe) start automatically as window bootup (e.g., before window logon)

and I need to do this work using windows service.

need your help. (note: please dont suggest me any other solution, I need to use windows service to accompalish this task)
