When I encountered the error in reading the postgresql.conf file I googled and found the answer at error reading c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.3\data\postgresql.conf during installation .But I am unable to execute the answer since when I run the command "runas /user:postgres cmd" and entered password of the superuser(postgres) which I entered at the time of the installation I get the following as the output.I am on Windows 7 starter

Attempting to start cmd as user "<admin-account-folder-name>\postgres" ...
RUNAS ERROR: Unable to run - cmd
1326: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.


Can someone offer me a solution please?
I am totally new to PostgreSQL
Thanks Varuna
