Hello Josef,

try to start it from command line (as user postgres!):
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/app-pg-ctl.html

As soon as you can start up the server successfully stop it again (in
another command line window or by adding ' &' (no quotes) at the end of
the command).

Then you can add a new service by using the pg_ctl option register.

You can remove the old one by using 'sc delete':

Good luck,
