PostgreSQL service won't start!

[reallyhappy]

I am having a problem. After i restarted my computer today i loaded up PT4 which hung for a while before telling me postresql wasn't running. I played around stopping/starting/restarting the service but it wouldn't start.



Next i read on here how to re-install and downloaded the latest version (8.4.11-1 for windows 7). The install went fine but after the service still wouldn't start. I have tried restarting the service from Tast Manager, services.msc and also via the start menu > PostrgeSQL 8.4.




Any idea's on how to get this working again? I have never had a problem before and was using my database <5mins before rebooting pc (not due to any updates).

Unable to create PostgreSQL database: PT3_2012_04_10_015021
Reason: Unable to login to database (template1). Reason: could not connect to server: Connection refused (0x0000274D/10061) Is the server running on host "???" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432?

Click Start, type services.msc and click on it when it appears. In the window that shows up, do you see PostgreSQL in the list?
