Another would be if the "subsystem" version of the DLL, or one of the DLLs
that it's referencing, is greater than the version of Windows you're running
on. For Windows 98/ME, the "subsystem" version must be 4; on 2k/XP it can be
5. (Didn't we discuss this just recently?)

Note that I'd suspect the runtime DLLs (version 71) before I'd suspect the
actual DLL you built yourself. You can check the subsystem version using
DEPENDS.EXE that comes with Visual Studio.
