PowerePivots Import Error: Only Access DB, Excel files or text files

I am running Excel 2010 on Windows XP SP3 with Power Pivots ver 11.0.3000.0

When i try to import data from excel sheets or Access DB or test files i get the following error

**********************

An error occurred while loading the file.

More Details:Failed to connect to the server. Reason: Unspecified error

*********************************************

No such issues with SQL server or OLAP Cube. I can import data just fine using those.

Any help would be much appreciated.

No such issues on other PC with similar configs.

Thank you.
