This document describes, step by step, how to reinstall PostgreSQL. It's difficult to give you a more direct solution without know exactly what error messages you are seeing.

I followed the instructions from this.... http://www.pokertracker.com/products/PT3/docs/PokerTracker3_Manual_Uninstall_Reinstall_PostgreSQL.pdf
but I can't delete PostgreSQL from my C:/Program Files..... it gives me this error: Cannot delet httpd.exe: Access is denied.
Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use.

I tried to uninstall and reinstall without deleting this file but when i try to open PT3 and it still won't open. I assume it is because i don't know what my password is. I've tried the default password dbpass but that doesn't work...

is there a way to delete this file or find out what my original password was... thanks.

You can disable password authentication by following these steps:

Click Start --> Programs --> PostgreSQL --> Configuration Files --> Edit pg_hba.conf. Scroll to the bottom of the document and in both places you see the word 'md5', replace it with 'trust'. Save and exit. Then reload the PostgreSQL configuration files by clicking Start --> Programs --> PostgreSQL --> Reload Configurations. You will now be able to access your database without a password.

Could you please paste what you see as the contents of your pg_hba.conf then?

I have the same problem, but I can replace it with trust, but I cannot save the file
