This means that the master exited right after the service control 
manager tried to start it up. There's a bunch of reasons why this could 
happen, but the ones I see most often are:

1. The master can't find the config file(s) (try running 
'condor_config_val LOG' and see if it works)

2. The master can't write to the LOG path (make sure the path exists and 
BUILTIN\Administrators and/or NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM can write to it)

Failing that, running 'condor_master -f -t' from the command line can 
often reveal the problem. This is just for debugging though; don't run 
the master from the command line normally.
