I've had to do that at times, and have never had a problem..... I
would back up my data all the same, to be on the safe side - see
pg_dumpall in the docs.

I've just downloaded RC1 of pgsql 8.2, and the steps in the installer
were as follows:

(i) Select language
(ii) Pre-release warning
(iii) Display of installation notes
(iv) Select components to be installed
(v) Windows service configuration
(vi) Cluster initialization
(vii) Procedural languages to be included by default (i.e. in
template1)
(viii) Contrib modules to be included by default (i.e. in template1).
(ix) Ready to install.

You must have missed step (viii) on your previous installation - the
"Cube" module is the one that you seem to have included.
