Have a winXP machine with the above program installed, however, the
service will not start, even when logged in as administrator.

Need a step by step setup procedure for WINDOWS. Is sthere one available
or is there anything available on setup after install? All I have found
is for lilnux-unix-bsd or windows with cygn, not the native install for
windows.

You cannot install the service as administrator, because of security
risks.

Try this thing:
http://pgfoundry.org/projects/pginstaller

after install like there is for linux?
