Problems Deploying to Win 98

I have developed an application using Visual Studio 2003 and Win XP.
All works 100% on Win XP, but on deploying to Win 98 I am getting the
following problems:

1. The installer creates shortcuts on Desktop and Start menu that have
no 'Target Location' etc. On trying to run them it returns an error,
"C:\Windows\Application
Data\Microsoft\Installer\{1D5D63DD-....}\_69525.exe is not a Win32
Application"
2. I get the following error: "The type initializer for
System.Management.ManagementBaseObject threw an exception". I think it
results from a block of code in which I obtain the disk size of the
local C drive using a ManagementObject object.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!!!
