ODBC drivers needed

My server is running with 2003R2 x64 with SQL 2005. Some of my client
computers are having some issues with ODBC errors while working in an
accounting package. I have been told that it is most likely a driver
compatibility issue between the XP pro versions on the clients and the 64
bit version on my server.

I suppose first does this seem plausible, and where might I find the updated
drivers for XP? I am not sure if this is the correct forum for this request,
but it seemed to be the closest.

Many thanks in advance.
