icon deployment problem

Hello guys,
I have made a project in vb6 which builds queries to generate show some crystal reports with data from an sqlserver2k db.
I have also made an installer by the package & deployment wizard of vb. The setup works fine in my developers machine but doesnt do right anywhere.
When the setup is about to be finished, i see some error msg that "can't find the *.dll file in path specified".
If i manually copy the necessayr dll files to the client machines sys dir and register them with regsvr32 then after some trys I can succeed.
How can i build a clean installer ?
My developer machine os is a W2k server and i tried to install in another w2k server and some other 2k professionl machines.

Most probably you didnt include all needed dll's in your setup, so when it tries to install dll, it cannot find all the dependencies it needs. Use Dependency walker (Included in VS - named 'Depends') to see which dlls are needed for your dll to be succesfully registered.
