I don't know what restrictions apply for a windows service to spawn a child process.. For your needs, it may be worth trying and make a difference if you call the windows APIs directly.

See which one might suit your needs from - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa376883(v=vs.85).aspx

You can use http://pinvoke.net/ to find out how to declare almost any win api functions in your .net app.

Hope this helps.

when I REBOOT my servers, i use shutdown /r /t 0

It reboots the server right then. Use at your own risk.
