Windows OS Crash, got Data Folder, how do I get it running again...

I'm not a PostgreSQL expert, I only know Microsoft SQL.  I have a customer
with postgresql database...
1.  Windows OS Crashed  *do not know the state of postgresql when this
occurred*
2.  Pulled data folder from from postgresql 8.2 folder
3.  OS was reinstalled & post 8.2

How do I reinsert the Data folder & get the service up & running?

Microsoft SQL, I would usually put the bad DB in Emergency Mode & then
export it into a blank DB.  Is there a similar fix for Post???
