I have this application on USB built in VS 2008, on win7 , the USb has two partitions one hidden and other normal one, when i run the application on normal part , it has to swap the part to hidden and run the applications present in hidden part.

When i run the application in normal part from USB , the memory swaps but the applications in hidden part are not run. but i can see the application running in Task manager.

when i copy the application and run it from the desktop, the application works seamlessly, without any glitch.

I guess some thing is holding the application process when run from USB, i cannot safe eject the USB too.

CAn some one give me a clue as to what can be done to resolve.

Also the application works well on Windows 7 as expected.

The problem is on XP
