"No. It sounds like what you want is to install everything and configure the

Hear Hear!  Many (if not most) install issues come from complicating an install 
with configuration tasks. It's nearly always easier and cheaper to have 
configuration using programs that run in a normal user environment and can be 
debugged and tested without having to wait for a working setup.

I have to register a com dll at the beginning of our installation.  We need to

 Is there any way to elevate the user's privileges right when they double click 
the MSI?

No. It sounds like what you want is to install everything and configure the 
product after it's installed.
