    Default postgres installation tilting me

    I've followed the install instructions here

    http://www.holdemmanager.net/Postgre...tall_Help.html

    step 8 does not work for me, the only way I can get it to install is by unticking initialise database cluster. otherwise error messages come up.

    even when I do it this way I cant get it to work in HEM.

    I have tried uninstalling postgres and trying again but that does nothing.( I also cannot seem to delete the folder even after spending hours messing with vista's security)

    thanks for any help

    you need to delete the "data" folder in c:\program files\postgresql\8.x
