If this is the only Service in the setup, then I suppose you could add a condition to the ServiceInstall standard action. Install the file always, condition ServiceInstall on your condition, and there's more complication with remembering to do the uninstall of the Service, and conditions on the ServiceControl action too. It's arguable whether this is better in any way the two components solution.

My ugly, ICE error, solution is making two components with the the same file. One continaing thexecutable and the service. One containing only the file. Which componet gets installed depends on a conditiion. I therefore install te same file in two different components which generates ICE erros. Is there a better way ?
