Before you proceed with lot of other experiments, my suggestion would be build 
exes on VISTA and XP separately, and trying running on the other system. I am 
assuming the either of the two.
a) VISTA dlls should be backward compatible with XP, which your issue indicates 
that you faced problems.
b) functionality which is provided by exe built on XP, should be provided by 
VISTA as well.

I would also suggest to check the files and for any incompatible ones, ship 
both. I doubt, if renaming of msvcrt.dll to something like msvcrt1.dll will 
work if you have carry both. Just a little research on py2exe checking if we 
can ship two same named dlls in perhaps different folders can help.

Thanks,
Senthil
