32Bit ODBC driver on Windows 2008 R2 64Bit OS Error

Problem: I received the following error message upon trying to create a system DSN using a 32Bit ODBC driver I had just installed on a Win2088 R2 64Bit Server (with SP1):

"You are logged on with non-Administrative privileges. System DSNs could not be created or modified"

Solution: Make sure to use the 32Bit ODBC console instead of the standard ODBC console located under Control Panel/Administrative Tools:

"C:\windows\sysWOW64\odbcad32.exe"
