QuestionSide-by-side configuration errors Pin

Ok, so first off, I'm really new to C++ so please let me know if this is in the wrong forum. I'm trying to finish a small project using Visual Studio 2008 Professional and I'm running into an error:

"The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log for more detail".

So this is roughly what I'm doing:
1. Create a new Windows Forms Application project
2. Add some Labels (one of them is dynamic and displays the current time), some bitmap pictures, and a clickable hyperlink
3. Create a version.rc file to display version info on the compiled .EXE file.
4. After making sure it runs in Debug mode, I compile it in Release mode

The compiled .EXE file works just fine on my 64-bit Windows 7 box I'm developing on, and it works fine on several 32-bit Windows 7 machines I've tested. It also worked on an XP box I got my hands on. However, when I had some others here at work test it, they got the above error on a Windows Vista machine and on a Windows XP machine.

So what gives? How can I create a simple little app that we can launch on all the various newer (XP on up) operating systems without having to rely on a prerequisite add-on being installed? I'm just looking to create some basic user notification windows. Nothing too fancy.

Is there something I need to change to get this thing to work consistently on all the OSes? Or do I need to do something other than a Windows Forms Application?

Thanks!
