I have spent several days trying tofind the cause of this on google,
but I am stumped.
Thsi is the article I was using as a guideline:

I am running on Windows 2000 professional. ipc-daemon2 seems to start
fien in the service window.
The problem is when I log into windows as postgres. I rin the initdb
-D command, it runs through its checks and then says initdb fails
saying there is a lock file on the existing PID. There is no
postmaster process runnign. I delete out the data directory to make
sure there is no pid file, rerun initdb -D again and same thing.
The versions of the software are the latest. I just downloaded them a
coupel days ago.

Let us not then pursue
By force impossible, by leave obtained
Unacceptable, though in Heav'n, our state
Of splendid vassalage, but rather seek
Our own good from ourselves, and from our own
Live to ourselves, though in this vast recess,
Free, and to none accountable, preferring
Hard liberty before the easy yoke
Of servile pomp.
