Question at hand : What would be the causes/resolutions of the Windows Installer Service failing to appear within Services list for WinNT?

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Windows Installer wasn't originally part of NT4 (only 2000), and I don't think thet the NT4 shell supported advertising until about SP4?

What I can't remember is whether the service was ever included in a service pack (maybe SP6 in fact)? Is this what you're getting at?

Have you tried installing the service using "Instmsi.exe"?

Sorry if I'm stating the obvious - it's been so long since I worked with NT4!
