You may want to look at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/208689 and http://support.microsoft.com/kb/239114

I have Windows XP x64 too and there're no 64-bit Access/Jet ODBC drivers. This fact and these 2 articles make me think Access/Jet ODBC driver is available in 32-bit version only.

64-bit version of Microsoft Access 2010 may include 64-bit ODBC driver, but Microsoft Office 2010 doesn't support 64-bit Windows XP...
