Wow, it just didn't occur to me to try the 64 bit version. I assumd that 64bit Windows 7 was not typical. Since I bought this PC the day after Christmas w/4 gig of mem and 500 gig drive for a extra low price, I thought for sure they had to cut corners somewhere.<br />
<br />
You're the man! &nbsp;It's working now ...<br />

I have a fairly clean new Windows 7 laptop and am trying to install the MySQL ODBC 3.51.27 32bit connector. <br />
<br />
It appears to install OK but it does not show up in the ODBC driver list. I've used the msi and zip versions with the same results. &nbsp;The only external driver listed under Drivers is Sql Server.<br />
<br />
I've also tried the 5.1 version of the ODBC driver and disabling UAC during the install attempts and the results were the same.<br />
<br />
I have a local copy of MySql running on my PC.<br />
<br />
Any help would be appreciated.
