We have an application in VB.NET 2005.

We used the VB.Studio Setup project to create an MSI.

It runs fine on the development machine and on out test windows (XP) and on a new XP SP2 under VMWare but crashes IMMEDIATELY on startup.

The Ap uses Application framework.

A MsgBox was put in as the first instruction of the startup form but does not display.

All we get is a MS window EventType clr20r3 ... systeminvalidoperationexpection.

This has been sort of a persistant problem and is probably do to something missing but how do you find out what??????

The app event viewer had a .NET Runtime 2.0 but it appears from the add/remove programs that .NET 2 was installed.

When the MSI was installed on a new machine .Net35Setup.exe was downloaded and ran. We also ran it on the problem machine but no help.

So how do you troubleshoot these problems and what is wrong or missing.

We didn't have these problems with VB6!!!

Help!!!! and thanks
