First of all, please download the latest beta. beta-1 is lacking a whole
lot of things.

Second, this problem is because you ened to grant the postgresql service
account "Log on locally", "Access this computer from the network" and
"Log on as a service". The current released betas of the installer only
checks for the service right. This is fixed in latest cvs, and we expect
to put out a new version of the installer in a couple of days.
