Long shot but is your icon file a valid icon on Windows XP? Try copying it to an XP machine and assigning it to a shortcut. I seem to remember that the bit depth, icon size or alpha channel changed after Windows XP.

Subject: [WiX-users] Wix Burn LogoFile doesn't work on Windows XP Hi, I create a burn exe and as long as I don't specify a "LogoFile" attribute for the <bal:WixStandardBootstrapperApplication> element I have no problems. But when I do add this attribute it works fine on Windows 7 but does not work on Windows XP. On XP the GUI does not even load. In the log I get: [07D8:081C][2012-03-29T12:16:16]: Error 0x8007000d: Failed to load theme controls. [07D8:081C][2012-03-29T12:16:16]: Error 0x80004005: Failed to create main window. [07D8:080C][2012-03-29T12:16:16]: Shutting down, exit code: 0x80004005 My XML is below. The only difference in the XML between the two cases is the LogoFile attribute. I also tried to use a Payload element for image as I seen a post by someone else using a custom theme but it didn't make a difference. <Bundle Name="Dynagen Configurator" Version="0.9.0.0" Manufacturer="Dynagen Technologies Inc."
