Have you tried using a file dsn as opposed to a system dsn?

No idea what OS you are running, but for a start, visit
http://www.microsoft.com/data/download.htm , scroll down to Data Access Utilities and download/install Jet 4.0 Service Pack 3 Update. The error message you are getting is basically saying it cant find the driver or its corrupt.
Of course if you're running win2k or XP, should already have this version.

While I've never touched ASP code in my life, I would guess that your database isn't set up in ODBC correctly, or you're not referring to the right name. I'm afraid others will have to help you :O/
