TBH I have given up on Delphi 8 & 9 and switched to Visual Studio/C# for
.net work :-) and I have never used BDP. Some other things I would try are:

~ Make sure the firebird .net provider is registered in global cache.
~ Check which modules are loaded whilst debugging, to see if it
dynamically links with other dll's.
~ Use Dependency Walker (http://www.dependencywalker.com/)
~ Copying all the dll's from "\Common Files\Borland Shared\BDS\Shared
Assemblies\3.0" and registering them 1 at a time on the target pc.
