I've given up on the network solution. Now trying to install HM on my WinXP machine I'm once again running into trouble. When I try to install postgre via the standard HM installer I get an error message (Sorry, can't install. Great) I found a thread to the 8.39 version which did install and start but my database is for 8.4 so it's not a solution. The fact that one version installs and runs and the one I need doesn't should show that it's not me being stupid. Can I download the 8.411 version or whatever HM uses separately?

Thanks

edit: so I can't edit the proper title. Could an admin please do it for me? Ty

You can download and install postgresql 8.4 from PostgreSQL: The world's most advanced open source database (http://www.postgresql.org).

We also have problems with some computers where 8.3 works but not 8.4.

Thanks for the link. I formatted the PC again, and this time it worked. Ridiculous...
