When I use Firebird, I use the native drivers. It was only a testcase to 
see if ODBC works. But why a user DSN works and a system DSN does not is 
a problem. Did you try that with Access ?

Pervasive does not install 32 bit on 64bit. 32 bit on 32 bit is no problem.

That would be a problem I think. I'm running Win7 as a VM on a linux host.
