Thanks a lot for your help and quick respond. There is a but... I truly don't know anything about computers. (as you might have noticed) So the two question who rise are - where to i find the pg_hba.conf-file and how do I adjust it to 'trust'? (ive searched my windows for it but i couldn;t find it) - how do i start postgres with skip-grant-tables option (i believe ive erased the complete postgresql from my comp)?
Thanks alot again guys. Hopefully it will work this time.
