Configuration problem (help!)

I am trying to recreate a runtime/development environment on a
different machine.

We are using VB5.

I have one running, but my network people say that they cannot just
clone it because of some sort of lock in of its network identity or
something.

So, I figured I would just load VB5 on the machine they gave me and it
would work. I figured loading the VB5 development system would
provide a run-time environment so I would not have to run setup to
install and reinstall our project, but it is not working.

I can't even run the code in the development environment, when I try:

1. It complains about not being able to fine comdlg32.ocx and
comctl32.ocx.

2. Controls that are check on the Project/Component/Controls menu in
the environment that works are *not even available to check* in the
new environment. They are:

Microsoft Common Dialog Control 6.0 (SP3)
Microsoft Windows Common Controls 5.0 (SP2)


Maybe I patched or cofigured the orginal working development
environment differently, but I don't recall doing anything except
running the VB5Cli.Exe patch and I did that on the new one.

Needless to say, my exe's will not run on this new system either. I
figured that installing the development environment would provide a
runtime environment as it does on the original system. But it exe
fails with run-time error 50003.
