Uh, why bother?

postgres / mysql are desgned to be run under unixen, running them on
Win will always be a hack. 

It will probably be easier to install the Linux OS and Posgres on 
the win2k machine than to install posgres/mysql on win2k. 

all respectable distributions carry postgres _as part_ of 
the distrubuition.
