Postgres service starts and then stops immediatly

Hi,

-We are using Postgres 8.3.7 on Windows

-We cannot start the Postgres service. The windows OS error message is:

"The PostgreSQL Server 8.3 service on Local Computer started then stopped.
Some services stop automatically if they have no work to do, for example,
the Performance Logs and Alerts service."

-No logs in the postgres log file

-When using pg_ctl, the postgres.exe is starting OK

Please help,

Thanks,
