My hard drive crashed and I lost my database. So now I am using another computer and trying to install postgres on it. It uses Windows XP. I get through whole installation process and right at end I get error message. " User 'postgres' could not be created. User account already exists."

How do I fix this to get postgres installed? Thanks.

Now the error message is "Internal account lookup failure: No mapping between account names and security id's was done.":confused:
