That's an ancient version of PostgreSQL and is no longer supported on Windows, but that's not what's causing your immediate problem. However, I think you'll need to provide some more details to have any chance of getting useful help. Looking at your postgresql.log file would be a good place to start.

You should be running a recent version of any release -- the 8.0 major release is up to a 8.0.24 bug patch release, which fixes many security and data-eating issues. > PostgreSQL 8.0.0 is one of the applications included in MoteWorks > platform (from Crossbow Technology Inc,) Why would that do that, instead of a supported version? I would suggest contacting them to see whether their software works with something supported and patched to a recent revision.
