Rob,

I'm sorry, but there just isn't enough information here for me to
diagnose your problem.

I will say that:

 o When you are adding driver you should take care to not
    use the same short name for the drivers or they will conflict.
 o The above open datasets message indicates a dataset with zero
    bands.  Zero band datasets can be quite problematic for some
    applications.

Best regards,
