Hi Mark,

I had this behaviour with my work PC, running Win7 x64. My workaround
was the same too. The problem is probably something to do with the
Local Security Policy, where the "Log On As A Service" privileges for
.\postgres are lost on each restart. This computer also has Novell
Client/ZENworks, and a bunch of other factors.

The fix was to go into the service, and change the log on from a
Network Service (or .\postgres) to Local System account.
