Go to http://www.sysinternals.com, download and run their excellent regmon
and filemon tools, try to start the service, and watch the regmon/filemon
results.  They'll tell you exactly which registry key open or write failed,
or which file operation failed.  Then look at the permissions on that key or
file.

Andreas, w.r.t. running as a service under LocalSystem but allowing that
service to interact with the desktop: many native Win32 applications can do
this with no problem (Performance Monitor is an old favorite of mine).  It's
certainly possible to do, and SRVANY.EXE in the NT4 Resource Kit doesn't
seem to do anything special other than set up the appropriate registry
entries.  Does the Win32 VM do anything especially unusual when trying to
access the screen, or is it all standard GDI calls?
