- Do you have the latest version of HM, 1.09 Beta 10? - http://www.holdemmanager.com/downloads/HmBetaUpdate.exe
- Worst case, you can export your hands from PT and import them to HM, if you had to reinstall SQL.
PT2 or PT3?

- What are you using for user name and password on HM's Database Control Panel connection window?
Postgres/postgrespass?
Try these other possible passowrds:
svcpass
dbpass
- If none of those work, you could try removing the password requirement from your PostgreSQL isntallation/server.
You must set the postgresql authentication mode for localhost (127.0.0.1) to "trust".
Do this:
Click: "Start -> Programs -> PostgreSQL 8.x -> Configuration files -> Edit pg_hba.conf"
It will open a notepad with some text.
Scroll all the way to the bottom, you should see a line reading this:
#IPv4 local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5
Edit the "md5" to "trust", no quotes. It should now read:
#IPv4 local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 trust
Save the pg_hba.conf file, and close notepad.
Click: "Start -> Programs -> PostgreSQL 8.x -> Reload configuration"
If none of that helps, or you need help with any of it just let me know and I can help you directly.
