Trying to install PostgreSQL at the moment on a fresh install of XP SP2. Going through the installation referring to the FAQ, I arrive at a screen that looks different to the one detailed in the instructions:

I wasn't sure what to do here, so I made it resemble the image from the FAQ as closely as possible, with the Client setting to SQL_ASCII to match Encoding (Server).
After going through the rest of the procedure, the install errored out saying it could not start the service, Retry/Cancel? Retrying didn't work, so I cancelled it. I then uninstalled it via Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and deleted everything from the Program Files directory, but trying to install again with different settings, I get the message "The user account already exists.!" If I try and install using another Account Name, I get this:

I'm at a loss as to what to do now. I can has help?
