IVI Device Communication Issue in deployed executable

[WHunter]

I'm having problems communicating with a an IVI device (Chroma 61604) in an executable. I can talk to the instrument on the dev machine when running the raw vi or exe. I can also see and talk to the device on the target machine using MAX.  But I get an error referring to the device driver or prefix when I try to run the exe on the target machine. LV2012SP1, dev machine win7, target winXP. Suggestions?

Thanks in advance!!

The simplest explanation is that you did not install the IVI driver on the target. The DLL would obviously not be part of the exe. You would have to run the same installer that you ran on the development pc. You would also need to include the MAX hardware settings in the installer that you created.
