Running an msi from another msi is not supported, and will not work. What you have to do is create a bootstrapper. This is an exe file that will check for certain prerequisites and install them, and then it will run your msi.
I have found the 'bootstrap manifest generator' to be of use (it is a bit unstable though). Have a look here, http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/bmg Also you can use visual studio to create a bootstrapper for you. When you create an installer package within visual studio it gives you bootstrapper options, and then spits out a file called setup.exe Search around on google, there is heaps out there on the subject. Otherwise get back to me if you want more of a hand.
