PostgreSQL 8.1 for Windows became unsupported over two years ago due to
technical issues: http://www.postgresql.org/about/news.865
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PostgreSQL_Release_Support_Policy
There were some major infrastructure changes in 8.3, including building
the software using Microsoft's compiler instead of ported UNIX tools,
that make it (or, even better, 8.4) a far better choice.
There is no specific 64-bit port of PostgreSQL yet, one is in progress
for the next version but it's still missing a few things:

But you can run the regular 32-bit server just fine on the 64-bit
versions, albeit with some concerns about client apps:
