I am running a Postgres 8.3 db and I find no problems to connect,query 
and post to it.  However, I copied all the DLL's from the postgres bin 
directory(i.e. C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.3\bin) into my application 
directory i.e. where the exe file resides.  I also distribute these 
files in the exe directory when I deploy the application.
I think the other directory to install them would be C:\WINDOWS\system32
