I got this error when I try to install postgresql on windowx XP

i am using the installer version which is from:

ftp://ftp5.us.postgresql.org/pub/PostgreSQL/binary/v8.1.3/win32/postgresql-8.1.3-1.zip

The user account that the service is created by the installer. I just wonder
why it cannot start the service with that account(postgres)

any hits are appreciated

Regards
Jeff


the installation completes? if so, try to start the service by hand
and show the error (eventlog should have a description)
