Is e: a network drive? If so try putting the images local to see if that makes a difference.

If that's the problem you need to add a .config file setting to allow network access to resources (and dll loading).

http://www.west-wind.com/webconnection/docs/?page=_36e0qlogr.htm

The topic mentions DLL loading but I think the same thing applies to any resources accessed cross the network. This setting basically makes a .NET application behave like a 'normal' Windows application without dealing with security policies.
