this can happen if the svkp service isnt properly installed. i just looked at my services and svkp also isnt showing up even if renguard is working fine for me.

just use the command line tool for service control:

open up a command line shell (start>run>"cmd") and type:

sc qc svkp


it will show you the configuration of svkp like this:
SERVICE_NAME: svkp
        TYPE               : 1   KERNEL_DRIVER
        START_TYPE         : 2   AUTO_START
        ERROR_CONTROL      : 1   NORMAL
        BINARY_PATH_NAME   : \??\C:\WINDOWS\system32\SVKP.sys
        LOAD_ORDER_GROUP   :
        TAG                : 0
        DISPLAY_NAME       : SVKP
        DEPENDENCIES       :
        SERVICE_START_NAME :


if you get this svkp is at least installed.
try then:

sc queryex svkp


it will query the status of the svkp service and should show you something like this:
SERVICE_NAME: svkp
        TYPE               : 1  KERNEL_DRIVER
        STATE              : 4  RUNNING
                                (STOPPABLE,NOT_PAUSABLE,IGNORES_SHUTDOWN)
        WIN32_EXIT_CODE    : 0  (0x0)
........


the STATE has to be "4 RUNNING" else the svkp service is obviously not running Wink
if its "STOPPED" or something try:

sc start svkp


to start the service.
if any of these commands fail or the first command (sc qc svkp) already fails it is possible that you dont have the required rights to do so.
make sure you have administrator privileges at least when installing renguard and the first time you launch it!

to launch only the renguard installer/renguard with administrator rights (in case you are paranoid or something Wink ) you can use the "runas" command (also in command line shell) like this:

runas /user:[ADMINACCOUNTNAME] [RENGUARDFILE]
(so for example:)
runas /user:Administrator game.exe

i hope this will help or at least point you in the right direction.
