Just my two pennyworth

I would be tempted to create a dead simple program in delphi which just
instantiates a form and closes on an OK button (No IBO). This will take
about 5 mins.

If this works you have established that the machine will run a Delphi prog.
If fails its not IBO.

If OK create a minimal program which connects to an IBO database then
disconnects and closes on an OK button.

If this fails its telling you its (probably) an out and out IBO problem of
some sort.
