If you actually have postgre.exe files there, you need to talk to
whomever yuo got that from, because that's not PostgreSQL.

If you have postgres.exe files, which is the PostgreSQL backend exe,
then you need to check your logs (both eventlog and the pg_log
directory, depending on how it's configured) for error messagesn that
will indicate what yourp roblem is.
