Re: Windows 2000 Pro Error on Install - Mailing list pgsql-novice

Sorry Mike but,

been and done that - file unzipped on an entirely different PC to the
install candidate PC.

Used 3 different rc5 builds and the official 8.0 all with the same
result.

Do the files need to be a specific directory?

regards

Extract the files to your pc and then run the smallest one outside of
your zip program.
