-1 Either remove the postgres user first: before you reinstall
C:/net user postgres /delete

-2 or install it to a different directory: for example PostgreSQL 8.3a
-3 or nstall PostgreSQL 8.4 instead

This is usually because you installed the PT3 trial (which installs postgresql automatically).
If you havent uninstalled it yet, you should be able to simply connect HM to the sql installation.
PT3's default name/password is - postgres/dbpass
HM's default name/password is - postgres/postgrespass
If that doesnt help:
1. Go to C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.x\data, move the the pg_hba file to your Desktop and open it with notepad.
2. Scroll to the bottom and change all md5 to trust. Save and close the file
3. Move the file back to the data folder
4. Restart the PostgreSQL service: Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services
HM will accept any password now.
