        InitializeComponent();
    }

     private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
     {
         this.Visible = false;

         notifyIcon1.ShowBalloonTip(500, "Title", "Tip text", ToolTipIcon.Info);

Take a look at this: http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=637483 instead of doing what you’re doing.

Also, the problem is that when the form loads it’s not visible yet. Handle the Shown event instead of the Load event.
