The standard location is \windows\system32, but if you also have it in
your app dir it should work.

Now I don't know if you can just rename fbclient.dll to gds32.dll. I
thought FB 1.5 came with a gds32.dll *stub* (but I may be confused
:-))

I think you'll have more luck in firebird-support with your question,
as the problem is clearly not in IBO (because on other client machines
your app works fine) - or maybe even firebird-devel since it concerns
an RC.
