Hello
im was using hem for a long time on windows xp and everything worked fine.
Now i have a new pc with windows 7 and tried to install hem and postgres with the comboinstaller from this forum but short before the end of the installation i get the message : cannot install postgres

I already read all threads i could find about this theme and tried several things mentioned in the faq as uac and firewal ... but it is still not working,
PLEASE HELP !!

If that installer fails to install PostgreSQL, please reinstall PostgreSQL using the following instructions:
A) Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt > Right-Click > Run As Administrator

net user postgres /delete
B) Reboot.
C) Try installing this version of PostgreSQL - http://www.holdemmanager.com/downloads/Postgres_8.3.9-v1.0.7.exe

Did you try rebooting? Did the postgreSQL service start after rebooting Control Panel / Admin Tools / Services and scroll to PostgreSQL and see if it started

Hi,

Please email me and we can do a teamviewer session, just download teamviewer from TeamViewer - Free Remote Access and Remote Desktop Sharing over the Internet (http://www.teamviewer.com) and let me know a suitable time GMT in advance. Teamviewer allows me to access your computer to fix the problem.

When we agree a suitable time you just need to send me the ID and password that Teamviewer creates to get access to your PC

support@holdemmanager.net

Thanks
Morny
