I'm trying to install PostgreSQL on a WindowsXP machine that once had a PostgreSQL 8.3 installation.  As far as I could tell the original installation was removed, there is no PostgreSQL directory and nothing that looks like a Postgres file.  However, when I try to do an install I get a popup with the message:
An existing PostgreSQL installation has been found at
C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.3.  This installation will be
upgraded.

There is no such directory.  PostgreSQL8.3 does not show up on the currently installed programs list.
Do I need to do some sort of PostgreSQL specific uninstall?

Any help or advice would be appreciated.
