The ODBC DNS 'Test' button says it connected successfully, and I am able to connect to the same database via Management Studio and ASP.Net. I don't think its a SQL problem, but its hard to say when the error message is blank.
Any help fixing this, or ruling out SQL as the problem, would be appreciated.

I am trying to set up Perfmon to log directly to a SQL 2008 Server (trying to avoid binary file + relog). The SQL server is running locally on the same server I am trying to record perf counters from. Note that I am NOT using SQL 2008's data collection features, and I am trying to log non-sql related counters.
I set up a SQL 2008 Native Client System DSN with Windows Authentication, but when I try and start my data collecter set I get an error message that "Call to SQLExecDirect failed with %1", and the in event viewer I get "Call to SQLExecDirect failed with .". The set is running as System, which has rights to the database. SQL does not log any errors or a failed logon attempt.
