Coldfusion MX 7 Administrator

Question

I've installed CF MX7 onto my Win7 Ult machine, and reached a point where I'm lost.
I am in the datasources setup screen (Data & Services > Datasources > Microsoft Access), and I have gotten this prompt:
     Unable to update the NT registry.
     Variable DRIVERPATH is undefined.
When I received the above message, I was adding a datasource called pd, a 2003 MS Access database. This is what I have:
CF Data Source Name
Database File
System Database File
Use Default Username
ColdFusion Username
ColdFusion Password
(16-character limit)
Description
I do not have any database system file, that I am aware of, which is for security.
I cannot go any further with adding pd to my listing.
Please help!

We're talking about the Developer Edition, Adam, which installed successfully on my home computer.  Also, I opened the Developer Edition's Administrator successfully, and the message was the following:
I don't think you get what I mean.  This is not a ColdFusion problem, it's that Access ain't supported on 64-bit Windows.  There are no 64-bit drivers for Access, so on a 64-bit Windows install, Access is not supported.
You can horse around trying to get a 32-bit driver and try to get it working, but that falls outwith the scope of these forums (it certainly falls outwith the scope of my knowledge on the topic, too ;-)

Or, like I said, do the googling.
But at the end of the day, this is an Access/Windows issue, not a CF issue.
