Sometimes just disabling a firewall will not stop it from interfering - please check our Firewall Guide.

Do you see PostgreSQL in the services list? (Click Start and type "services")
What happens when you try to start it?
If it doesn't start check for PostgreSQL-related errors in the Event Viewer (click Start and type "event") - if there are any, what do they say?
