Class not registered exception in vb.net

Hi all,

I am facing class not registered error. I did much R&D on this error and could not find an answer which fixes my problem. Can anyone please help me on this error.

Below is the error I was thrown with.

An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details.  The error is: Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG))

Here is my code.

Friend Class frmSplash
    Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form
#Region "Windows Form Designer generated code "
    Public Sub New()
        MyBase.New()
        If m_vb6FormDefInstance Is Nothing Then
            If m_InitializingDefInstance Then
                m_vb6FormDefInstance = Me
            Else
                Try
                    'For the start-up form, the first instance created is the default instance.
                    If System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly.EntryPoint.DeclaringType Is Me.GetType Then
                        m_vb6FormDefInstance = Me
                    End If
                Catch
                End Try
            End If
        End If
        'This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.
        InitializeComponent()

        'bFormLoaded = False

        Form_Initialize_Renamed()
    End Sub
