OLAP Service Stuck in "Starting" Status -

We had a disk crash on our server a few days ago, which was where the
Analysis Services database files were stored - the disk was replaced
and the contents restored from the drive backup. I'm now having
trouble getting back online with my OLAP database.
When I get into Analysis Manager, I am not able to do anything with
the OLAP database - I can see the database okay, but Analysis Manager
freezes everytime I click on the database name, overwrite the database
with a restore of an archive, or delete the database all together.
I have tried manually stopping & starting the OLAP service (through
the Control Panel / Services window) - the service stops okay, but
gets stuck in the "Starting" status when I try and start it. The
service did start okay after a reboot last night, but I have the same
problems mentioned above whenever I try to do anything with the
database. And the service once again gets stuck in the "Starting"
status when I try to manually stop/start it.
Thanks in advance for any help on this issue.
