Old database not connecting...HELP

I had problems connecting to server even after restarting service,reinstalling postgresql 8.2, so I went ahead and installed version 8.3 and now the service is starting when I load PT2. However, I can't connect to my old database (from 8.2).

When I start PT2 it says DATABASE does not exist, cannot connect to database 08001.

Is there any way I can connect to my old database? My 8.2 Folder in my harddrive is 9gigs so I assume that is where all my info is.

Please help, thanks

This isn't going to work because you can't read an 8.2 database with 8.3. When did you backup that database last?
