My Threading Timer Doesn't Tick

I can't get my threading timer to show a splash screen panel for six seconds, then move onto the next panel. The timer just doesn't tick (this is aparent when I set the time to wait to 100 and it never fires off the sub)

I've tried using java, I've tried using the system timer - this is my last hope - please help!

Here's my Code
-----------------

Private strConn As String = ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("conString")

Private Sub btnAgree_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnAgree.Click
Dim oCallback As New TimerCallback(AddressOf OnTick)
Dim lPeriod As Long = 6000
Try
oTimer = New System.Threading.Timer(oCallback, Nothing, 0, lPeriod)
Catch ex As Exception
Response.Write("It Didn't Work")
End Try

pnl4.Enabled = True
pnl4.Visible = True
pnl9.Enabled = False
pnl9.Visible = False
Private Sub OnTick(ByVal state As Object)
pnl4.Visible = False
pnl9.Enabled = True
pnl9.Visible = True

End Sub
