Why will my app. work on every computer but one?

I have a Visual Basic 6.0 application that has been driving me crazy! I have tested and debugged the heck out of it on Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, and XP, but yet it still won't load onto the only computer (2000 Pro) that I need it to. The error I get when I turn off Dr. Watson is:

The exception Floating-point inexact result. (0xc000008f) occurred in the application at location 0x77e8f142.

I have really tried everything and, like I said, it works on every computer but the one on which I need it to. I have made sure all of the .dll libraries are loaded and the proper VB modules are available.

Does anybody have any insight on this?

Looks to me like you're just unlucky with some dodgy error within that installation of windows. In any case I recommend you post to the vb forum as opposed to the vb.net forum.

A VB6 application? So why post about it here in the .NEt section? Or did I miss something?

We'll get Klienam to move this to the correct forum.
Anyone have any ideas though, as we have started to get this error when our app, on a cytrix server, closes down :(
