Look into the Windows event log for more info.
I guess you also recreated the Windows user postgres so that the file
privileges are wrong.
IIRC there's a batch file for setting the correct file privileges (
don't recall the name) within the PostgreSQL installation folder.
Beware - if you specify the wrong path you might not be able to start
Windows again!!!!

Good luck ...
