Pedro, My first recommendation would be to use a bootstrapper and the Crystal reports runtime MSI file instead of the merge modules. The merge modules are IMHO almost useless, not to mention the fact that if you use WiX 3 you'll have to turn off verification because the CR merge modules have so many things that cause ICE warnings.
If that is not an option for you, the most likely reason for the problem is that you don't have all the necessary actions in your InstallExecuteSequence. Specifically, at least according to comments in some code I used before switching away from the merge modules, you will need to include the SelfRegModules and SelfUnregModules actions. Good luck!

I'm inserting the crystal modules as shown here: http://pastebin.com/f286f6c04 The problem is that although the Crystal Reports files are copied to the right directories in the target machine, some or most files are not registered. Tried to create a setup project using Visual Studio 2005, and added the modules to the project, and there, everything works fine, with all files being registered. So I think the problem is with my wix source files. Could someone please give me some tips? I'm getting lost here.
