Newb Help


Hey there everyone, new to this forum, so I hope I put this in the right
spot. So on to the problem

I am using Visual Studio 2005 on an XP machine, and I am making just a
simple 2d racing game using SDL.(SDL=http://www.libsdl.org/index.php)

I build and run my program fine, and then I take the exe, and the
sounds/images, and put them in a different directory on my computer,
run the .exe, and everything works fine.

If I take that same folder, and transfer it to a different computer, I
get an "Application failed to start, please try reinstalling the
application" error. I took all the appropriate Dll's and placed them
in the windows/system32 folder as well, and still I get this error.
Does anyone know what the problem is?
