Workaround:
There is a known issue with WMI.Net. Resolve this issue by registering the wmiutils.dll file as follows:

1. Click Start, and then click Run.
2. In the Run window, type: regsvr32 wmiutils.dll
3. Click OK.

Try this...

Do you have any custom actions or installer classes?

Hello PhilWilson

No i dont have any installer classes

TRY REINSTALLING WINDOWS INSTALLER 3.0 OR 3.1 - I DID THIS AND IT WORKED FOR ME. I WAS GETTING THE EXACT SAME ERROR MESSAGE.

The way to debug MSI install issues is to create a log of the install. You do this with a command line install:

msiexec /i <path to msi file> /l*v <path to a text log file>

The log will report errors at the failure, and probably contain that error message text too.

If you have no installer classes or custom actions, about all that's left is an internal Dll used by the setup to check for the .NET framework.
