Help on difference between Win7/WinXP handles resource files.

$

So i have an application that contains a resource file. Within this resource file it contains. 3 xml files, 1 icon file. 1 of the xml files of course is the manifest file. I added the 2 additional xml files to extract and use later when the application needed them. The problem is under Windows 7 the resource file is fine and will execute but under windows xp the resource is not working according to plan. It will run fine in the ide but once the application is compiled it bombs. (parameter incorrect) Any suggestions or ideas?

The resource file looks like this..
- Icon
--Icon_File (my icon)
-XML
--1 (xml file contents manifest)
--2 (xml file contents for application)
--3 (xml file contents for application)

If I take 2, 3 xmls out the application executes fine when it is compiled under windows xp. The 2nd XML is just for the application to read from and the 3rd is actually an export of a scheduled task.

In case any one is wondering. I am using Resource Builder to add the additional xml files by right clicking and choosing add xml file.
