The default PostgreSQL values are:
Server: localhost
Port: 5432
User: postgres
Password: dbpass

If this password does not work for you, you can disable password authentication by following the directions of this tutorial.

If the configuration files aren't there, are you sure you have PostgreSQL installed? You can reinstall PostgreSQL via this pdf and it won't damage your data.
