    Old 2003 or 2003 R2? There's a difference.

    We'd also need a lot more description. "Hangs up" doesn't say much. Where does it hang up? What packager and installer technology are you using?

    I have developed the application setup on 2000 server R SP4.

    When i'm instaling on XP pc it shows "Setup is updating ur system" and then doesn't proceed further..

    if i see it in task manager it says setup not responding..

    You should not be packaging your software on a server setup. Create a package on XP and a separate on for Server. You might be getting the "hang" due to incompatible dependancy and system files.

    What are you distributing in your package?
