> Hi, i'm new of this mailing list (sorry for my english).
> We are experiencing a problem during installation of
> postgresql-8.0.msi on a Windows 2003 Enterprise machine.
> When we launch the msi installation, after we choose the
> language and confirm for continuing with setup, the
> application hangs waiting and we cannot kill in any way such
> process and you cannot perform the shutdown of the machine.
> We installed the same software on another machine of the same
> type and with the same Operating Sustem without any problem.
> Some suggestions ?
> Thank you for any help you can give us.
