I think you're missing a CheckBoxValue= attribute.
Like I said, you might pick up some tips from my beginners tutorial. I
show an example of a dialog box with checkboxes on this page:

Thanks for the reply, n what about the checkbox not getting
unchecked/checked? If I write:
[CDATA[0]]
the checkbox (once visible) will not check ever no matter how
much I click over it, and if:
[CDATA[1]]
the checkbox wont uncheck ever.

What you describe about the control becoming visible
when you hover the mouse over it may indicate that you have an overlap
of controls. I.e., there may be another control whose position and size
conflicts with the check box's position and size.
One way of seeing these problems is to look at the
dialog box with a graphic editor, like in sharpDevelop.
You might find some tips in my (unfinished) beginners
tutorial for WiX: http://www.merlinia.com/mdt/WiXTutorial.msl

Subject: [WiX-users] want to add a check box ...
Hi,
I'm creating an installer in wix. The basic
*.wxs file I created by decompiling (using dark) from the msi setup I
made in visual studio 2k5's setup and deployment project. So now I use
only wix. Now I want to add this feature on the last screen when
installation is done that there should be a checkbox that if clicked
should run the installed application after the close button is pressed
on the last screem (FinishedForm). I've done the launching part by
adding:
<CustomAction Id="Launch" Return="asyncNoWait"
FileKey="_BAC91B52626C4FC89B3665F29A8D644E" ExeCommand="" />
and the following line inside the CloseButton
<Publish Event="DoAction"
Value="Launch"><![CDATA[NOT Installed]]></Publish>
But now I want to add a checkbox to the last
screen that if checked should allow the Launch to happen. Now to do
that, I again made a new setup using vs and added a screeen with
checkboxes, compiled it using vs and decompiled using dark to see what
the code is than copied the checkbox code to my FinishedForm in my wix
project:
<Control Id="Checkbox1" Type="CheckBox"
X="18" Y="110" Width="348" Height="12" Property="CHECKBOXA1">
<Text><![CDATA[{\VSI_MS_Shell_Dlg13.0_0_0}Lanuch app]]></Text>
<Property
Id="CHECKBOXA1"><![CDATA[0]]></Property>
</Control>
and added a:
<CustomAction
Id="CustomCheckA_SetProperty_CHECKBOX1" Return="check"
Execute="firstSequence" Property="CHECKBOXA1" Value="" />
But what it does is very strange. I run the
installer, when the installation is finished on the last screen i see no
checkbox but when I move mouse around the finished form the check box
suddenly appears with the text I wrote. But it doest not get checked
(and even if it can get checked/unchecked how can I use it to control
the launch of application? I believe something to do with
*conditions*?). How can I properly use this feature and fix it?
Regards,
..ab
