Making portions of form not visible problem

I have a form that I have designed as a splash screen. I have a background color of 100, 0, 0 set on it. I set the background image of the form to this image. I set the Transparency Key of the form to the 100, 0, 0. Now on this machine I compile it and it works beautifully. However, when someone else tries it on their machine, the form comes up just fine, but the transparent portions are very visible. I also tried recompiling the code on a different machine and it still would not work correctly. Why will it only work correctly on this machine?

Thanks, Chester
 
Did you check to see that the color resolution is the same on both of your computers?
Also, perhaps it's because you aren't using a basic color, such as Color.Green or Color.Lime :).
 
IIRC Transparency only works on Win2k or better - what OS is this user running?
If they are running a modern OS I would recomend checking you have the latest video drivers installed.
