Guys ... not so funny problem occuring ...
I wrote a program (over the past 3 months) which is in its final stages (beta testing), my first course of action was to try running it on another machine other then the one used to develop the software. This was meat with some rather negative results.
 Error Message: the application failed to initialize properly (0xc000135). Click OK to Terminate
Now I have another machine (with VS.NET installed, same version) and tested it, works fine - so problem is localized to the machine that doesn't have VS.NET installed (and I don't have another non-devel station to test with)

My current system details (on the machine where it was coded, compiled, tested, and works):
 OS = Windows XP Pro SP2
 Os Updates = All Done and Rebooted
 Microsoft Development Environment Version = 7.1.3088
 Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Version = 1.1.4322 SP1
(not sure if there is anything else you need to know)

The Machine I am testing on:
 OS = Windows XP Pro SP2
 Os Updates = All Done and Rebooted
 Non Development (Visual Studios) Software installed at all (but shouldn't it still have the .NET Framework?)

Now I was under the impression that I only needed Windows XP Professional SP2 (which had .NET framework already integrated, but after searching on the machine I can't find any mention of dotnet anywhere) so I pray this is not a dependancy issue.

But other than that - what could it be? Does it require a special Microsoft Download? Is there some kind of unknown dependency? Is there a way for me to CHECK what it needs (meaning what are the dependencies) so I can determine where in my code I can start looking?

Any clues? This is pretty much a FATAL error, not really getting a warm fuzzy feeling...Any help would be greatly appreciated.
