In case that you mean a real Windows Service(and not a windows process - got a bit confused because you mention a service with its extension)... you can loop through the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\ where the Service Control Manager stores all the installed Windows Services.
When you find a match, there should be a data::value-pair that gives the path to the service exe(dll?).
