Hagop, You may have missed an earlier post from Jim McMaster in the general list to someone else with a similar problem. Assuming you've uninstalled PostgreSQL and want to reinstall, try the command "net user /delete postgres" to delete the account and start over. I've copied Jim's email below.

The uninstall really needs to remove this account. Either that, or the next install process needs to be able to get the random password somehow. Open a command prompt, then use the command "net user /delete postgres" to get rid of the account. "net user" shows all users. - -- Jim McMaster mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
