I've tried to install PostgreSQL using the setup guide provided at

http://www.holdemmanager.net/setup/postgresSql.html

Everything works fine until I get past step 10. When I start installing the software files are copied etc but at the end I get the error message that the pass I have chosen is to weak. When i click ok on this message the installation is canceled.

Any ideas? I run Vista 32-bit but from what I understand this is a PostgreSQL problem

Thanks in advance

Which version of Postgresql are you trying to install? Don't use 8.4, use 8.3.
Normally this "weak" message is just an information.

You could try another password but make a note of it, you will need it from time to time.
