Cannot Install PostgreSQL on Windows 2000 Server

Hi,

I am having trouble installing PostgreSQL on Windows 2000 Server. When I installed it the Services would not start so I could not complete the install.

I granted the windows postgres account Log On as a Service and Log on Locally permissions. Now when I try to install I get an error say the username is Invalid and that some rights need to be granted. I cannot proceed.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank You

Were you ever able to install PostgreSQL on windows 2000? I am having similar problems on 2000 Pro and have absolutely zero luck with it.

Not with 8.3. 

I finally did get a few earlier versions to install. I am not very familiar with windows 2000 administration, so it took some doing ;) Here is what I did
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-general/2008-03/msg00904.php

At that point I stopped looking into version 8.3. Since I was not having any luck with it and received no responses.  I would still like to know how to force it install though ...
