hello !
I having an issue with my postgres database installed on a windows xp. For some reason, I can no longer start the postgres service through pgadmin or the services window. I get the following error:
Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
Any ideas ?

Sometimes the PostgreSQL logs for the current day have useful error messages. If you did a regular install, they're probably in "C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\(your version - probably 8.3, 8.4, or 9.0)\data\pg_log". You may be able to figure out what is broken from that. If you can't decipher the message and can't find anything on a web search, post it here and I'm sure someone will know what is going on. Good luck.
