Question

I have developed a window application using c# in windows 7. My application is scanning the images from the scanner and showing it on picture box. It is working fine on my machine. I have created the package and installed it on client's system who is using windows XP and when I click on my scanner form the following error occurs:

Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {E1C5D730-7E97-4D8A-9E42-BBAE87C2059F} failed due to the following error: 80040154
