You can build PG based on the source code of the latest release. <br>Or you can install PG9.2.1 via the installer. All you need do is build it or download it and install.<br>See:<br>installer: http://www.enterprisedb.com/products-services-training/pgdownload#windows<br>sourcecode: http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/source/v9.2.1/<br><br>As for the stability, it depends on the real environment. I believe PG can run well on windows environment. <br><br><div><div style="color:#909090;font-family:Arial Narrow;font-size:12px">------------------</div><div style="font-size:14px;font-family:Verdana;color:#000;"><div><div style="font-family: 'lucida Grande', Verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; ">Thanks&Regards,</div><div style="font-family: 'lucida Grande', Verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; ">Xiong He<br><br></div></div></div></div><div> </div><div><includetail><div><br></div><div><br></div><div style="font-size: 12px;font-family: Arial Narrow;padding:2px 0 2px 0;">------------------ Original ------------------</div><div style="font-size: 12px;background:#efefef;padding:8px;"><div><b>From: </b> "Bob Pawley"<rjpawley(at)shaw(dot)ca>;</div><div><b>Date: </b> Sun, Nov 4, 2012 07:08 AM</div><div><b>To: </b> "Postgresql"<pgsql-general(at)postgresql(dot)org>; <wbr></div><div></div><div><b>Subject: </b> [GENERAL] Server to run Postgresql</div></div><div><br></div>

<div>Hi</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have an unused computer which I am considering turning into a server to
run my Postgresql database.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Is this even possible to do?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If so, can someone suggest an open source server that is relatively easy to
set up? Windows based would be ideal.</div>
