Hi,
 
I am not an expert in PG, still i can help u to some extend as i have successfully deployed pg8.1.1 using both installer and no installer on Win XP,2K,2003.
 
To solve your issue
1. cretae a user on your local system.
2. Use runas to run pg_ctl using the user created
Eg batch file:
@echo off
chdir c:\WINDOWS\system32
runas /user:SYSNAME\postgres "<path>\pgsql\bin\pg_ctl.exe start -D ""<path>\pgsql\data" -l ""<path>\pgsql\pg_log.txt"" | "<path>\sanur pwd
pause
 
In the above eg sanur is a utility used myself for piping the pwd into runas as it will ask externally. You can download it from http://www.commandline.co.uk/sanur_unsupported/index.html
 
Also go through the Following FAQ link f or ur further queries
 
Also u have to copy libpq.dll either in %system32% or in PG bin folder.

The server must be started under an unprivileged user ID to prevent
possible system security compromises.  See the documentation for
