Using System.Diagnostics.Process.Start in a windows service

I am trying to start a process from a windows service but when the process
starts the command window that the process runs in never shows. Is this
because I am calling it from a windows service? Is there something else
that I need to do?

Here is my code:

System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo info = new
System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo();

info.FileName = "DTSRun";
info.Arguments = server.ExeSyntax; //Arguments for dtsrun
info.WindowStyle = System.Diagnostics.ProcessWindowStyle.Maximized;
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(info);
Thanks
