Thank you so much for giving the idea!!! :)

I found this, it works.
w/o using template_postgis these 2 sqls can run in query tool of Pgadmin111
Program files\Postgresql\8.3\share\contrib\lwpostgis.sql
Program files\Postgresql\8.3\share\contrib\spatial_ref_sys.sql

This sounds as if you were connected to the database server via the template_postgis database which is why you were unable to create a database from the template since it was considered active. You need to use another database, typically the postgres database generated during installation is used for these kinds of administration tasks.
