installing a program on win 98 from xp

I have written a simple program using a form (win32 project). the program calculates meters, given the mass of a metal and domensions. I have visual c++ .net on an xp machine.

I have built it and it works. I then used a setup and deployment -> setup project to create a windows installer package (msi). When i transfered it to a win98 computer, it was unable to intall due to instalation version error.

This is the first time i have used visual c++, so am i making a simple error?

thanks for any help
