Yes, but is it *running* ? The service manager shows the current status
(running or stopped) separately to the startup settings. Check if it's
running.
Also: If you look in Task Manager, are there any "postgres.exe"
processes shown? (You'll need to show all users' tasks, since they run
under a different user account to yours).

er ... what? "port test" ? Did you mean to specify a port number and
just put the wrong thing in the wrong field, or did you really intend to
tell psql to connect to the port "test" (via servicename->port
translation presumably)?
What port is PostgreSQL listening on? Check postgresql.conf. The default
is 5432. Try connecting to PostgreSQL by port number.
As for the error message:
0x00002741 appears to be a name service error, which makes sense if the
system is trying to look up the service name to get a port number and
failing. Say, if it's deeply confused by being fed a non-numeric string
for a port number.
Specifically, it's:
Windows Error 0x00002741 - 10049
The requested address is not valid in its context.

Not even server startup messages? When is the most recent log entry?
