So I recently reformatted my hd and tried to reinstall postgres. However, when I run the installer it asks me for the database superuser and service account. I've done some googling and I can't seem to find what the problem is. There should be no password yet as I haven't installed it. It also says that if the account doesn't exist it will create one when I click "next" but when I do it gives me an error saying that I must enter a password.
Has anyone else had this problem?

Just enter user postgres and password postgres and let the installation procedure create the user. See the installlation guide: http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=176

Under Vista make sure that UAC is switched off before starting the installation. http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=73
