So it's just not starting at all? Open task manager, switch to processes tab. Start your app, does the process appear? Framework all installed correctly on the XP machine? Anything in the event log?

Need moar info!

Other useful informations are:
is Vista 32 or 64 bit?
is Xp 32 or 64 bit?
do you compile for 32 or 64 bit target?

Does your application have any other special requirements...is it using crystal reports or a database or some other component? My other thought was that perhaps it's being blocked by some kind of anti-virus.

You need to confirm Is the dot net framework 2.0 / 3.0 already installed or not. If not then you need to install dot net framework 2.0/ 3.0 first to your target machine.
