Postgresql 8.0 beta 5 setup in windowsxp

[Art Fore]

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.
