When you start Squeak as a service you cannot interact with it directly. Services are started whether a user is logged on or not, so there's just no window you can see. I'm not sure what you want to do - if you really want to interact with Squeak then it might be better to put it into the Autostart (which gets run when a user is logging on so there's a way of interacting then). BTW, if you could explain a bit more about what you're trying to do I might be able to give a couple of hints on how to achieve this.
Cheers, - Andreas

Yes I do. I've actually been able to get it to start now, but I can't interact with it. I've tried -headless and without. Tim.

Do you have administrator priviledges on the machine you're
running this
on?! Installing a service on NT requires admin rights.

Can anyone provide a tip on running squeak as an NT service? I've tried C:\squeak\2.8\squeak.exe -service: "Squeak" 2.7.image C:\squeak\2.8\squeak.exe -headless -service: "Squeak" 2.7.image And a few other combos. I always get the error message: "Starting the service is failed. Error 5:Access is denied."
Thanks, Tim.
