How did you implement your splash?
Where do you keep the bitmap you display on it?

i just insert my .bmp file into the "Splash screen Independent langage view" in ISD...

Hi, Thomas,
 I don't use ISD, but it sounds to me like te bmp isn't being extracted from the .cab file in time for you to use it.
In the old IS, you had to specify that your splash was not to be compressed, I think, that it shipped outside of the cab file(s), like setup.exe.
 Another possibility is that you're looking for the bmp in the SRCDIR folder when you should be looking for it in the SUPPORTDIR folder, where the cab file gets extracted to.
