Thomas, funny you should ask. I just ran across these tools for
installing windows components about a week ago:
Instaling windows components < Vista or 2008
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/222444
Installing windows components >= Vista or 2008
Command Line Install of IIS
http://www.iis.net/articles/onepagearticle.ashx/IIS7/Deploy-an-IIS7-Serv
er/Installing-IIS7/Understanding-Setup-in-IIS7
New in Windows Vista and Windows Server Longhorn is the pkgmgr.exe
command line tool. Pkgmgr is used to install and uninstall Windows
optional features and replaces sysocmgr.exe. The article How to install
IIS7 on the Command Line
<file:///D:\source\orcas_specs\iis.net\siteroot\setup\SetupOverview\defa
ult.aspx?tabid=2&subtabid=25&i=958> will provide you with a
step-by-step walkthrough of installing IIS on Windows Vista or Windows
Server Longhorn using the pkgmgr tool.
To check for IIS, at least, I check :
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\InetStp\

Subject: [WiX-users] Checking for Widnows 2008 server components?
What is the recommended way to check for Windows 2008 server components
to be installed?
In order to make sure, for example, IIS is installed, PowerShell is
installed etc.?
If not, is there a recommended standard way to install those? Exchange
etc. just break off and let the user install manually.
I assume this IS the recommended way then?
