Don't put the cmd.exe into your setup.
From http://wix.mindcapers.com/wiki/Category:Custom_Actions:
<CustomAction Id="CA1" Prperty="CA1_PROP"
Value="[SystemFolder]cmd.exe" />
<CustomAction Id="CA2" Property="CA1_PROP" ExeCommand="/c dir "
[INSTALLDIR]" > c:\dir2.txt" />
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="CA1" After="InstallFinalize" />
<Custom Action="CA2" After="CA1" />
</InstallExecuteSequence>
Change that ExeCommand to "/c msiexec /x project.msi"
