Best Advice, restore your computer prior to the P3 installation from system restore option in windows control panel(search for the restore option), then try to re-install P3 will solve the problem.
Share experience, install P3 3.1 onto an winXP is no problem. No need to install any ODBC other version since default P3 3.1 installation have taken the process.
However, when install other software, some may lead to the problem. Other software may bundle with latest ODBC which is not compatible with P3 3.1. We may aware the installation since it is part of software installation.
Thats why we do compatible test before any installation change.

If it is not the access right issue, then installed Btrieve/ODBC version may not compatible with P3.
Uninstall the installed Btrieve/ODBC driver and just install P3 again. However, there is a risk on this one.
Uninstall Btrieve/ODBC may lead to other software not function; A clean uninstallation may lead to clean registry also, which may lead the whole windows not function well.
