I meant to add that you're not seeing a command prompt coming back because Windows does not have an "execute in the background" command like Linux, etc. - so the postgres process will continue to run in the window from which you started it until you tell it to stop by pressing Ctrl-C or some such. You'll get your command prompt back then. If you're going to be running PG a lot on this machine, or running it on a production server, the better way really is to install it as a service, so that it can continue to run even when nobody is logged in.
