I'm not sure I fully understand your issue. But if you want to delay showing your main form until you finish initializing the application, you need to move your initialization code outside of the form (or call it from the OnLoad event). From a UX perspective, though, I'm not sure that would be the best route. Users want to see that your application is working - even if it is doing something in the background.
