OBIEE 11.1.1.5 AdminServer as Windows Service not working

Question

Hi, I've read several discussions on this topic, but have yet to find a suitable answer.
I've installed OBIEE (Simple Install) and can successfully use Start BI Services from Start > Oracle Business Intelligence > Start BI Services
I've been trying to set this up as a Windows Service (ala [url http://blogs.oracle.com/pa/entry/obiee_11_1_1_how3]this Oracle blog and [url http://blog.guident.com/2012/02/auto-starting-obiee-11g-services-as.html]Guidents blog posting, but have been unsuccessful.
I'm not exactly sure what information is helpful for this, so I'm adding links to my log files. I do want to draw your attention to the AdminServer log files. When run as a Windows Service, the last activity logged is: +<Creating WorkManager "ESSRAWM" for module "null" and application "ESSAPP">+.

Thank you for the quick reply!
When I try to start the Windows Service manually, the status box "Windows is attempting to start the following service on Local Computer..." appears and remains for 2 minutes (based on my "-delay:120000" setting I presume?). It then closes and the windows service shows a status of "Started." (that's shown in the [url https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=1yaiNaka-EEMmr5SBy2_4Eg1sW3oWnpcgjANa_cQjt-U]AdminServer-stdout.txt log: at 11:43:30 we see +[RunJavaApp] Invoking main class+, then at 11:45:30 (2 minutes later) we see +[ServiceStart] Reporting SCM of SERVICE_RUNNING.+
I let it sit in a "Started" state for 30 minutes and there is no additional logging activity. Incidentally, when I check the Windows Task Manager, it shows the beasvc.exe process consuming a constant 50% of the CPU with Memory fixed at 328,356 K.
Correct on all assumptions. Simple Install, Weblogic Version 10.3.5.0, Sun JDK 64 bit (version 6) - I'm using exactly what was included with the OBIEE install.
