Server not listening

I've spent a week trying to get PostgreSQL 8.3 to install correctly on
WIN2K. Server will load & I see the server processes loaded but none of
them have any open ports. I keep getting the message the server isn't
listening. Server set up to connect to default port 5432 on localhost but
doesn't appear to be opening the port when it loads.

Any help would be welcome.
Thanks,

Well, easy ones first, I guess: what does postgresql.conf look like,
specifically "listen_addresses" and "port"; what are their values and
are they commented out?

odd. can you try configuring the server to listen on '*' in postgresql.conf?
