Problem when installing Postgre SQL

[APerfect10]

How did you uninstall your previous version of PostgreSQL?

Is the "Secondary Logon" service started/running?

Best regards,

Derek

Did you delete the C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL directory?

also, when i open the file in the error, it says this

The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect.

same for me on vista, 8.2.6 installs ok with uac disabled but 8.3 will not, get same error as above, everything seems to go ok until the installation gets to the 'clustering database' part

I am getting the same or a similar error. In the Texas Hold'em left pane it reads, "Unable to login to database (PT3 Beta DB1). Reason: FATAL: database "PT3 Beta DB1" does not exist

Prior to installing Beta 4, I uninstalled the PostgreSQL 8.2 following the steps listed in the Beta Version 4 forum post:
PostgreSQL 8.3
Upgrading to 8.3 from 8.2 isn't easy, if you want to keep your database intact. If you don't mind losing your 8.2 databases, do the following:

1. Go to Start -> Settings -> Control Panel and choose Add/Remove Programs
2. Uninstall PostgreSQL 8.2
3. Delete the PostgreSQL 8.2 installation directory (typically C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL)
4. Go to Start -> Run, type "cmd" <enter>
5. On the command prompt, type: net user postgres /delete
6. Install and launch PT3 beta 4 with PostgreSQL 8.3. It should install with no problems.

I uninstalled 8.2.6 then installed 8.3 without any issues on Vista Ultimate x64.

Do any of you Vista users have UAC disabled or is it enabled?
