I have searched through numerous threads looking for a solution to my hud not working due to the newest PS update and cannot get anything to work. I uninstalled my postgresSQL (prolly unnecessary) and am now not even getting a connection. I am not savy with this stuff and am in real need of reinstallation noob instructions. Please don't flame my dumb ass.:D

Vista: Turn off UAC - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=73
Turn off Windows Firewall and Windows Defender for installing HM and PostgreSQL. Once you get those installed you can add exceptions to the firewall. If you have a 3rd party firewall, uninstall it completely before installing HM/SQL - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=171
For uninstalling SQL please follow these steps:
- Uninstall PostgreSQL from the Control Panel
- manually delete the Program Files\Postgresql folders
- run the command - start > run > cmd >
net user postgres /delete
- reboot.
- install again, with your firewall uninstalled or turned off if windows firewall
Install SQL - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=176
Logging:
I would suggest you turn off logging on your new SQL installation as well as these other performance improvements - Top 10: HEM performance increase tips

To turn off logging, follow these instructions. This is the first thing I do anytime I install SQL for someone.
- Start > My Computer > Tools > Folder Options > View > UnCheck 'Hide Extensions for known file types' > OK
- C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\data\postgresql.conf > Right-Click > Open With.. > NotePad > Check 'Always use this program'
- Scroll about half way down to ~Lines 245 - 260:
- The last line of this block of code, for the 'logging_collector', must be changed from On to Off.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ERROR REPORTING AND LOGGING
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# - Where to Log -
log_destination = 'stderr' # Valid values are combinations of
# stderr, csvlog, syslog and eventlog,
# depending on platform. csvlog
# requires logging_collector to be on.
# This is used when logging to stderr:
logging_collector = off # Enable capturing of stderr and csvlog
File > Save; File > Close
Start > Programs > PostgreSQL 8.3 > Reload Configuration.
