This may be a problem with bibtex rather than with biblatex. At any
rate, I it's good practice to avoid spaces in paths when using any
tex-related tool, in my opinion.

Yes, the old \bibliography command does not want extensions.

You may want to take a look at the bibtlatex manual as well, where the
issue is discussed.

I can't help here, not being a Windows user

It could be, you may want to look at the latex log to find out what is
happening. You are using \printbibliograpy commands at the end of each
chapter, aren't you?
Again, try making a simple, multichapter example to aid debugging and
perhaps post it to the list.
