I found the solution on the following forum http://www.911cd.net/forums//index.php?s=&...indpost&p=13789 In a nutshell, make sure your temp environment variable is pointing to a writeable area, ie ramdisk, hdd. Next time you fire up a vb6 application have a look in your temp directory and you'll see a ~blah.tmp file in there, that exists for the duration of the application.

I know the cause, but am yet to find a suitable solution. The "Invalid Picture" message is caused by the icon within the program. We have a custom written vb6 application that we use within WinPe, after updating to WinPE 2005, we started getting this "Invalid Picture" error message. After hours of troubleshooting we removed the icon from all forms within the vb6 project and the problem went away. I am yet to determine what warrants a 'valid' picture, or if there's something that can be added to the WinPE image to support vb6 applications with icons.
