So actually you want to run code in SYSTEM context in Terminal Session

can defer what needs to be run in SYSTEM context until to the very point
someone logs in? If so, onXPyou could trigger what you want to
accomplish using a Winlogon Notification Package (note that this won't
work on Vista and beyond).
This is required if you have a mirror driver installed to monitor
_primary_ display resolution changes. You can't monitor display
resolution changes in a service - if you have an RDP session up and do
an OpenInputDesktop, you get the RDP session's desktop.
Just be aware that your approach of running code in SYSTEM on a user's
desktop, especially onXPwhere there is no UIPI as in Vista and beyond,
can open up the system for attacks known as "shatter attacks" if your
code runs long enough and uses a naive message pump.
It works just fine on Vista.
