I try to install PostgreSQL 8.3 and I'm unable.

During the installation, it's write:



Error: Failed to run initdb: 1!
Please see the logfile in 'C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.3\tmp\initbd.log'. Note! Tou must read\copy this logfile before you click OK, or it will be automatically removed.



And this is the initdb. log: The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "SYSTEM".
This user must also own the server process.
The database cluster will be initialized with locale English_Canada.
The default text search configuration will be set to "english".
initdb: could not access directory "C:/Program Files/PostgreSQL/8.3/data": No such file or directory


I'm using Vista 32 bit and I follow the PostgreSQL Installation Guide. And my UAC is turn Off.

What the f..... problem?:

Thank you,
