Hi Shree,
It seems there is not problem with youe JDBC driver but the problem is with you windows registry.
Best way is to uninstall and then reinstall JDK1.3 but if it does not help then you need to fiddle with you windows registry.
run regedit. You will get interface similar to windows explorer.
there you can edit the registry.
I think by just correcting HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and HKEY_CURRENT_USER will help.
Goto HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\javasoft\java plugin\java runtime version. make sure value 1.3 s specified for it if not so correct it.
Now goto HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\javasoft\java runtime environment. (Stop there do not goto next level. Next level you will find multiple versions like 1.1, 1.2,1.3etc.) And check for the kay value current value. Make sure it is 1.3.
If it is not then first check whether in next level 1.3 is there. And if it is there then change the value of
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\javasoft\java runtime environment to 1.3
in the next level i.e.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\javasoft\java runtime environment\1.3
makesure corect paths are specified for Runtime lib.
Iknow it is pretty confusing but you need to be brave and do it your self. I have done it once without any problem.
So try it. Good Luck
