The problem surfaced when I started bundling my MSI packages in order to take
advantage of bootstrapping the perquisites like .NET Framework 2.0 SP2, C++
run time libraries. We've been careful to build all of our client adapters
in .NET 2.0/VS2008 since WIN2K is still widely used in the retail world - we
have a number of customers that have a mix of XPE and WIN2K in a single
store... So my WiX 3.6 MSI packages work just fine; it's the WiX 3.6 burn
binaries that are embedded into the .EXE that are incapable with WIN2K.  At
this point I'm just copying both the bundle EXE and the MSI to my customer
dropboxes. I'm just glad that I wrote all my custom actions in C# and not
C++!
