I'm trying to install a roxio burn engine update for realjukebox. Upon re-starting my PC, I get this message:

ODBC cannot load the installer.

Any clues what I should do? Thanks

Abbreviation of Open DataBase Connectivity, a standard database access method developed by Microsoft Corporation. The goal of ODBC is to make it possible to access any data from any application, regardless of which database management system (DBMS) is handling the data. ODBC manages this by inserting a middle layer, called a database driver , between an application and the DBMS. The purpose of this layer is to translate the application's data queries into commands that the DBMS understands. For this to work, both the application and the DBMS must be ODBC-compliant -- that is, the application must be capable of issuing ODBC commands and the DBMS must be capable of responding to them. Since version 2.0, the standard supports SAG SQL.

Uninstall the Real Player and reinstall it...that should do it...

Good Luck!

Yeah real frickin smart, he does a search on ODBC, copies the information and pastes it here.

Anyone with the slightest bit of experience installing programs knows that if it doesn't work, the easiest thing to do is uninstall it and try again. Duuuh.

Well, you could have done that for cin. Instead you chose to bash me. I think you speak volumes about yourself in one paragraph.
