Older Windows versions

Hi, I need an older version of PostgreSQL for windows since I,
unfortunatelly, have to develope a Win32 application with Qt-Non
Commercial, and the available drivers for Postgre are for Versions 6.x
and 7.x.

I went to the downloads section on postgresql.org but I couldn't find
anything but the 8.x.x versions for Windows.

Is there any wway to get the older versions for Window$?

Thanx in advance.

Any driver that works with 7.x should also work with 8.0.

Only via cygwin - there are no "native" versions before 8.0
Have you checked whether you can use the 7.x drivers against 8.x?
