For XP/2000/2003 you can change the startup options for all services in
the service manager.

Right click on My Computer and select Manage.
Expand Services and Applications then select Services - there you will
find an entry for PostgreSQL Database Server and you can change the
startup settings (disabled/manual/automatic).

Or you can run mmc and add the services snap-in (this way you can
configure remote machines as well).
