Is there a reason you're not using 8.1.4? 8.0 was the first windows
release, and as such there's a number of issues that were improved in
8.1. You should at least be using the latest 8.0 version (8.0.8).

BTW, it's PostgreSQL or Postgres. PostGRE doesn't exist...

Make sure that you have the right password for the account that
PostgreSQL will be running under. I often find it's easiest to just
delete that account and let the installer create it for me.

These could be issues surrounding administrator rights. PostgreSQL will
refuse to start if the account it's running under has Administrator
rights.
