Hi:
I'm not sure if anyone had same problem here, today i need re install my HM, so i did it again like before, but when i install PostGreSQL 8.3 woth Windows XP SP3, the install stopped at last stepm and never move forword for hours. This had never happen before, i tried many solutions: new version, the version with HM install files, but the postgreSQL just stopped there and i don't know what to do. Please help me , i can't install PostGreSQL , and i can't install it all day, make me sick... BTW : i tried other PC with same OS (XP, SP3) , and the install wen smooth and fine.
Here is the screenshot the install went wrong :

Thank you very much.

Regards.

1) Postgres requires NTFS file system. Is it on that disk?
2) Please try to uninstall antivirus\firewall temporary and try again. Simple disabling is not enough

Yes,

I'm experienced user with PostgreSQL, i do install on NTFS disk. I had all antivirus/firewall disabled ,not work for me. Still trying new solutions.
Thank you very much.

Try installing SQL 8.2: http://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/binary/v8.2.22/win32/postgresql-8.2.22-1.zip
to an unused port.
Does 8.2 also give an error at the end of the installation?

8.2 work's fine so far, but i can't restore my HM data with 8.2, HM pop up postgresql install folder not found.
So far 8.2 seems the best solution for me.

Reimport all your hands into the 8.2 database, abandoning the old 8.3 database.
