Windows understands '/' separators just fine, and has since Windows NT
4. It's only in the command shell that it may have problems, because
some Windows programs interpret '/' as the start character for option
switches.

Is there any chance you can provide your installation log, and report
the paths you tried to install the Pg programs and data directory to?

What language does your copy of Windows use? Running the following
command (all one one line) in a cmd.exe window and reporting the output
would help:

reg query "hklm\system\controlset001\control\nls\language"
/v Installlanguage

as would running this command in cmd.exe:

     chcp

and, agan, reporting the output.

Also, what was the exact error message given when the install failed? (
A screenshot wouldn't hurt ).
