Hmm. You might try opening the MSI with errors using Orca and see if the
column widths the ICE is complaining about really are different.

I would suggest looking at the WiX source code, under the
src\ext\UIExtension\wixlib path, to see how the wixlib used there is

Things like event log sources are not usually set via configuration
utilities (you either have the event log setup or you don't). Instead, you
would usually configure your application's code for what/how much it logs,
and the source is always present while installed and not present when not

If the Configuration Utility for example creates some new EventLog

they should be removed w

Here is how I would do it (actually I'm using the same but for .NET 3.5)
If .NET framework 3.0 is installed, the FRAMEWORK30 will contain the exact

Hope this helps.
