Yu should get a bit more than this....as an experiment, I stopped the
PostgreSQL service on my laptop (WinXP) and tried to connect with
pgAdmin - and a large window popped up quoting the error from libpq
("could not connect to server: Connection refused (0x0000274D/10061) Is
the server running on host "127.0.0.1" and accepting TCP/IP connections
on port 5432?") and giving all sorts of useful advice.
Do you not see something like this?
