Error 2140 When Starting the LPS, Formerly Known As WatchDog-NT

Message

When attempting to start the LPS, I get the following error:

 Could not start the WatchDogNT service. Error 2140: An internal Windows NT error occurred

Explanation

The "2140" error is usually the result of the LPS/WatchDog's "Log On As" user not belonging to the Local Administrator group.

Solution

The log on account must belong to this group in order to start successfully. Contact your network administrator about adding the LPS's log on account to the local administrator's group.
