      Possibly XP had a library already that you depend on, and 2000 did not ? It would help to find out what the exact problem is. Also, perhaps you used an API that was new to XP in your code ?

        Download the Dependency Walker application and run it on your DLL files. If you find a DLL with a function that has an exclamation point by it that means that that dependency is not resolved hence the dll cannot be loaded. This could be why your application is failing.
