Can you post your freeorion.log, freeoriond.log and freeorionca.log ?

These should be in C:\Documents and Settings\Geoff\Application Data\FreeOrion

I believe the server doesn't output anything to the log files until it gets a message from the client about how to start or load a game. So, you server probably isn't receiving the client's messages for some reason.

This problem looks similar to the one discussed here:

viewtopic.php?p=33254#p33254

No solution to that is known, though.
