Trouble installing on Windows XP?

PostgreSQL - ODBC friends,

We're attempting an install of the ODBC drivers (32-bit) on Windows XP 64-b=
it, and are having a heck of a time.

We've tried both the .msi installer, as well as a manual copy from the zip =
archive, have run the registry changes, etc. We've also manually edited th=
e registry so that pathnames are explicit; this did not help.

Still, though the 'ODBC Data Source' Manager sees the driver as available, =
and correctly reads its version, etc., we cannot get into creation of a 'sy=
stem DSN'!

We see ' Setup routines could not be loaded due to system error code 193' a=
nd 'Could not load the setup or translator library'

I'm sure someone's already squashed this one. Tks for ideas.

Lou

There are 2 kinds of applications on 64-bit Windows, 32-bit ones and
64-bit ones. Registry editor or ODBC Administrator has both versions
and please use 32-bit ones to handle 32-bit drivers.
