If Me.btnplayer.Top = Me.Label5.Bottom Then
Me.Timer1.Enabled = False
End If

or


If me.btnplayer.location.equals(me.label5.location) then
me.timer1.enabled=false
end if

or

If me.btnplayer.location.y = me.label5.location.y + me.label5.height then
me.timer1.enabled=false
end if

Hi,

Use Rectangle.intersectswith to see if they overlap.

if label5.clientrectangle.intersectswith(btnplay.clientrectangle) then
Me.Timer1.Enabled = False
End If

I tried that and the timer starts within a second of starting. i debugged and
it found the two intersecting when they arent
