I assume this happens before you are presented with even the first
dialog box?
Please try running the installer with logging enabled:
msiexec /l* c:\pginstlog.txt /i c:\where\ever\postgresql-8.0.0-beta4.msi

That should produce a logfile that will hopefully point you in the
direction of what's wrong

install


I've been able to install version 8.0.0 beta 4 on two machines
but the third one fails. The Windows Installer starts but after a few
seconds the installer widow disappears.

I'm using Win2K with all current service packs.

Any ideas on what is wrong or how I can make this work?

TIA.

Doesn't seem to offer much help!
