That means that PostgreSQL does not have write access to your computer's temporary folder. Do you have Administrator access on the machine? What operating system is this?

It's Win7. Yes, I am the administrator.

Try creating a folder called PostgreSQL in the root of the C drive and installing to there and let me know if that works better for you.
