.exe file is not loading

This is my first project in VC++.net.
I have used VS 2008 platform for development(OS used is Windows VISTA).

I have compiled the code with configuration mode in 'Release' and tried to copy the .exe file(from folder 'Release') to another PC(OS-WIN XP). Thus the file is not executing and an error message says to reload the exe file.

I have tried the same .exe file in another WIN XP PC, which is having loaded VISUAL STUDIO 2008. Here the project is executing... So I hope I need to install something with my PC for compactible with .Net.. If so plz suggest me what I have to install for executing my project??

There might be may reasons why your exe doesn't work after you have copied it to other folder.
The one of them - App uses some dlls or some other files that are supposeed to be in the same folder.

I was copying to another PC only..not on another folder...

It is asking for Application configuration. What is it??

Well, you have to install your App on another PC, not just copy it.
It means, App might need some additional Dlls, OCX, Framework and/or some other files that not exists on the target PC.
