Windows services have to respond to the Windows Service Control
Manager (SCM) within a certain amount of time (a few seconds as I 
recall) or the SCM will assume the start has failed.  How long
is your Regex taking?  Perhaps you should put the Regex in another
thread so that your SCM responses are timely....
