Note that Package ID and ProductCode are different. One is on the Package
element and should always change, one is on the Product element and should
change with each release.

That was the first thing I did, changing both product id and upgrade code. But
still invokes the cached msi. I think I will give another try because everyone
suggests it will work.
By the way please bare with me on installers :). It is one of the things that I
inherited recently.

Peter is suggesting you change your Product Id="GUID". I think you might want
to also consider changing the UpgradeCode="GUID" also for future ease of
upgrading one product versus the other, but it really depends on what your
ultimate goal is.

Hi Peter - What do you mean by changing the product code?

Change the product code.

Why?
--
Because new version of the product is completely different from old one
(apparently except the installer). Set of features, targeted platforms are
different. So, it makes sense to me that new one does not invoke old cache.
Specific scenario is this:
--Old version is installed on XP
--New version has launch conditions to install only on Vista
--Try installing new version on XP (to test that it won't install)
--New version invokes old cache. Launch conditions won't even run.
