Could anyone help me ?
pg_config is an executable of the PostgreSQL package. You need to make sure this gets installed first, before installing the node pg module.
The reason for this, is that the pg module actually compiles the driver using the pgsql tools and possibly the C/C++ code, which is why the node module is using node-gyp.
Read this article for more details: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/install-win32.html
You'll see pg_config.exe is on the list. Also, make sure that pg_config.exe is in your PATH when you try to install your pg node module again. You can check or this, by running pg_config.exe in the same current working directory you run npm install <module>
