Dave, Check out the event viewer. I've had to look into the event viewer many times for my day job while debugging .NET apps and services. Bring up a Run console and enter "eventvwr" for the quickest access.
I don't have an XP machine at home, so I don't remember what the XP version of the Event Viewer console looks like, but on Win7, check out the "Application" event log under the "Windows Logs" folder and check out the entries around the time the user attempted to start up the program. With any luck, you can find out at least a little bit more information as to what is going on on the users' workstations when they try to launch your app. Josh On Feb 9, 11:05 pm, iDesmet <[email protected]> wrote: > Hallo all, > > I have searched over the Internet and here, and the solutions found > didn't help with my problem. > I've created a windows application (WinForms) using various > components, of course, it works well on my development pc, but whey I > try to deploy on a client pc it simply stop working when loading > (Initializing). > > It's created using .NET 4.0, which is already installed in the client > pc (with .NET 2.0 to 3.5).
