Hi Anweshi, Thank you for that, it all makes sense. It's the Product.xml for the 64-bit installer package I am missing then. I've just looked through the CAB files on the VS2005 Pro and VS2008 Std Setup DVDs I own and can't find a 64-bit produc.xml file for .NET v2 (found product.xml files for other components though!).
I've looked in the Platform SDKs available on the MS Download website and it doesn't seem to exist in any of those which seems very strange to me. So, does anyone have a copy of the product.xml for 64-bit version of .NET Framework v2 that they could send to the mailing list (or me directly)?

Hi Ben If you have the bootstrapper packages for 32 and 64, what you can do is, you can include the x64 .netframework in to the product.xml of X86 and place all the .netframework 64 exes in the X32 package. Then you can include the single package (which already has 64 and 32 bit .netframework) in the WIX Project file. Here is what i did 1. You have 2 packages. DotNetFX for X86 and DotNetFXx64 for X64. You can get this 64 bit package on any 64 bit machines with VS installer at the bootstrapper location.. 2. Copy all the exes like dotnetfx64.exe and windows installer into the DotNetFx package. 3. Include the Package element in Product.xml for including the dotnetfx64.exe and the Windows installer if any exists for 64 bit. You can see how these are included in the DotNetFxX64 package, product..xml file and include it in DotNetFx X86 package. 4. And also check to include the Externalcheck and install conditions elements in the product.xml file. Everything would be available in DotNetFxx64 package, you need to make sure you combine them properly to install based on the target machiness Hope this is clear...

Hi, Combine them how? Do you mean you actually combined the files into one single executable?

Hi I had the similar issue.. In the bootstrapper Package I combined X86 and X64 together and that worked...
