I had a similar problem once.  For some reason, after I installed a windows service pack update, my Postgresql directory was altered to be READ-ONLY.  Once this happened, postgresql wan't able to start.

After spending a quited a bit of time to dicover the cause of the problem, I simply had to reset the directoy to be write-able.

I hope this helps.

       choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
       match
