Hi,
Can you please provide more information about the error, like the error message at least (and maybe a stack trace etc. too) ?

Thanks for replying The error just reads "application configuration error reinstalling might solve the problem" I'm affaid a stack trace is beyond me at this time I'm really a novice. Thanks

Hi,
Have .Net FrameWork installed in XP computer?
If you run C++ application, you need to install vcredist_x86.exe.
KB: Error message when you try to run a Visual C++ application: "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix the problem"
