The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 2893 Logged by: Ilya Kogan Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.1.6 Operating system: Windows XP Pro SP-2 Description: Non-standard theme explodes the installer. Details:
I was trying to install 8.1.6 via the MSI installer and would keep getting "Could not get system metrics: 8" when trying to get past "Installation Notes" screen. After reading a bit about GetSystemMetrics, I decided to switch from my non-standard theme (Some msstyle downloaded from something that was googled) to Windows Classic. Surprisingly, the error went away and I was free to finish installing. I also tried installing 8.2 previously and that went without a hitch. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
