upgrade to windows2003. installing pgsql in a w2k3 console session just
fine.

use "pg_ctl.exe register" to setup your system service when using zip
instead of installer. you can also use pg_ctl to run pgsql from a command
prompt. as you obviously "know what you're doing", i assume you've checked
the howto for pgsql on windows, read pgsql's setup-section and already ran
initdb... ;-)
