The log folder doesn't show any error problems. When I run the

Is the server running on host "???" and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5432? "
I checked using netstat -an and 5432 is not even listed being in
use/listening. I also tried changing the port in pgadmin to something
else
like 5050 but same error.
Google suggests that errcode 1069 means login problems. Make sure the
postgres user account is set up properly, the "change password at next
login" checkbox is not checked etc.
and, for the novice Windows XP Pro admin, realize that the Users tool in
the Control Panel is useless... Rather, go into Control Panel ->
Administrative Tools -> Computer Management -> Local Users and Groups,
which is the 'real' account management tool, where you can see all the
service accounts and so forth. The 'postgres" account should NOT be a
member of any special groups.
If you reset the password in a 'service' account like postgres here,
then also go into Services, find the PostgreSQL service, properties, and
on its 'Log on' tab, set the same account and password, as this is
required for the service to start.
