Are you handling the tick event of the timer in the service?

yes... timer is inserted to service.cs file which is service.
in partial class of this service is line:

this.myTimer.Tick += new System.EventHandler(this.myTimer_Tick);

Maybe you could use System.Threading.Timer instead System.Windows.Forms.Timer.
See article http://en.csharp-online.net/Creating...indows_Service for details.

Are you sure the event is firing? Have you called Timer.Start()?

I have just produced a quick proof-of-concept app to just display "TICK" every ten seconds, works fine for me..
