This is usually a firewall or windows update issue.
First try to reboot. If that doesnt help delete the \postgresql\8.x\data\postmaster.pid file, if you see it.
If no help, try this:
Start > Programs > PostgreSQL > 8.x > Stop Service
Start > Programs > PostgreSQL > 8.x > Start Service
Add exceptions to the windows firewall, even if it is off. If you have a 3rd party firewall, do the equivalent or uninstall it temporarily - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=171
Please try following all of these FAQs, step by step:
1) http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=34
2) reinstall the same version of postgresql, using the same \data folder - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=177
3) http://www.holdemmanager.net/forum/showthread.php?t=8261
If that doesn't help you will probably have to reinstall PostgreSQL completely and reimport your hands.

If you are reinstalling postgresql, please use these instructions - http://forums.holdemmanager.com/showthread.php?t=20755
*Now import your \HMArchive and any other old hand histories - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=173
If you play a site like stars/ftp you can email their support and ask for all your old hand histories and tourney summaries. Then import those as well, to make sure you have them all.
