Hi. This is my first post to this list. So please let me know if my question is in the wrong area.

I am trying to install version 8.3.0.1 on an old windows 2000 box I inherited. Firewall s/w is installed but disabled. I am logged in as a user with Administrative rights. When the installing gets to the step "Starting Services". It halts with the error

ERROR:
"The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000022). Click on OK to terminate the application."

LOG SNIPPET:
==========================================
StartServices: Service: PostgreSQL Database Server 8.3
MSI (c) (04:00) [22:12:14:687]: Note: 1: 2205 2: 3: Error
MSI (c) (04:00) [22:12:14:687]: Note: 1: 2228 2: 3: Error 4: SELECT `Message` FROM `Error` WHERE `Error` = 2888

The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2888. The arguments are: TextStyle, ,
Action 22:13:06: Cancel. Dialog created
==========================================

It is an old box with lots of programs installed. So it may well be a configuration problem. Anyone have any suggestions how I might go about diagnosing the problem? Btw, I am not a w2k admin, but if you need more information, please let me know. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Anyone have any suggestions?

I have tried different versions and everything I can think of but have run out of ideas. It is frustrating. I really would like to use postgresql.. if I could only get it to install! ;-)

I did not follow the past threads, but have you looked at what the event
viewer has to report?

Thanks for the response. I checked the event viewer. The main error it reports is:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: Service Control Manager
Event Category: None
Event ID: 7005
Date: 2/21/2008
Time: 3:20:25 PM
User: N/A
Computer: DEV
Description:
The LoadUserProfile call failed with the following error:
Access is denied.

Unfortunately, I am not familiar with that error. But at least now I have some more information to work with.
