Anyone have some idea how to do this? I am able to install my Win32 application but the postgeSQL install will not work. Any help or at least a starting point would be appreciated.

Are you sure PostgreSQL is the best solution for an embedded system? If you are using flash memory as a data store you may want to consider a database with a lower footprint such as SQLite. – Justin Ethier Mar 15 '10 at 1:02
This isn't programming related. I would ask the question to the PostgreSQL community (postgresql.org/community) either on their mailing list, or ask someone in IRC. They're a pretty friendly bunch. – Ben S Mar 15 '10 at 1:04

Windows XP Embedded is not a supported platform for the PostgreSQL server. IIRC it doesn't work out of the box because of some operating system features that are missing. If you, or somebody else, is willing to work up a patch for it, it is something that would likely be accepted (depending on how invasive it is), but support for XP Embedded is not something that anybody is currently working on.

You should try to use it without the installer, by using the binaries ZIP.
