Creating an installer for a executable which uses a cFP2200

I have a program which uses cFP2200 hardware to handle reading & writing to channels (AI, AO, DI, DO, TC's).  This program was developed & runs fine in LabVIEW 2009 SP1.  I do not want to run it with the LabVIEW development computer forever, and so would like to create an executable that will run on a computer which does not have LabVIEW installed. 

 

I built the executable, and it runs fine on the LabVIEW development computer.  I am having a problem building an installer which will allow me to run the executable on a non-LabVIEW computer.  After running the installer on the new computer (Windows 7), I try to run the executable.  The first problem is that a window pops up and asks for the location of the .iak file.  I have copied the .iak file from the development computer and pointed to the file, but the program still kicks me out on another error (32812 at FP Read).  I suspect that I am missing some basic steps here. 

 

Do I need to install MAX on the new computer and connect to the cFP2200 first? 

 

I am not including any additional installers with my current installer now - should I be including some?

 

Is there a resource somewhere that will walk me through the process? 

 

Thanks for any help you can point me to.

It might be because you do not have NI-Serial Installed on the new computer.
