MySQL ODBC driver not showing up after install

[djbeta]

I installed the MyODBC MySQL ODBC driver.. then,
when I run the ODBC Administrator (both on Win. 2000 and XP),
I don't see the MySQL driver.. I saw some other reports of this problem on the web, but I didn't find any solutions.

Any ideas ???

I did try installing while in safe mode..

I found the answer--

After installing the MySQL ODBC drivers on a Windows platform, no listing appears for the drivers under the Drivers tab of the Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator.

Try using Regedit to view the registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBCINST.INI\ODBC Drivers

Select and delete the (DEFAULT) string, then restart the computer.
