Hi all, could someone tell me how to install PostgreSQL on Windows XP and Windows 2000. I downloaded
"PgSQL731wiin1a.exe"and ran the installlation but none of the applications worked. I read somewhere that if I moved the
PostgreSQLdirectory frome "Programme" (german Windows) to the "Programes" directory it would work, which means that
somethings are hard-coded. Does some one have a sure method to install on these platforms? 

Moving the Postgresql directory to a "Programes" directory helped only a little, I could at last start the
commandshell,but connecting to the Database always failed, even with Pgadmin. 


Thanks for your help in advance.
