Downloading and Installing PostgresSQL:

Select find your national flag and click on the http link.
Now a window will pop up asking whether you want to save or run the installation program. Save it in your download folder, if you haven't created one do so. The purpose of having a Download file is that every time you download a big file you save it so that you don't have to waste your time downloading it again. However with small files, there is no point in saving them because of the small amount of time they take to download.
Now look in your download folder for postgresql-8.1.9-1.zip & postgresql-base-8.1.9.tar.gz
Right click on postgresql-8.1.9-1.zip click Extract to postgresql-v8.1.9-1.zip\
Now go to the folder you just extracted to in your download folder.
Double click on the file postgresql-8.1.msi, and to check whether you have the right version, look at the size, is it 134Kb.
A window should have popped up, saying what language you want to use in the installation. Select your preferred language. (if you have any other windows close them down and SAVE your work)
Now this window is important, so don't miss any thing out. Scroll down to Database drivers, and click on the small triangle pointing downwards, a small list of options will appear click "Entire feature will be unavailable".
Now scroll to the very bottom to Development, now just like the other one click on the small triangle pointing downwards and again the options will appear, this time click "Entire feature will be installed on your local driver". Click Next.
In the next window type into the User name field any random name, as you will not have to remember it. Then click Next. Click Yes. Click Ok.
Now in the current window there are some drop down menus you MUST change:
- The field next to Encoding, use the drop down menu to find UTF-8.
- The field next to Locale, use the drop down menu to find your language.
Type in a password and take a note of it and click Next.
Then you come to a window called Enable contrib modules, tick Tsearch2 near the right hand side and click Next.
Then to start the Installation click Next.
