Looking at the verbose log files it looks as though some custom actions must be 
at work behind the scenes. 

MSI (s) (EC:C0) [00:49:34:669]: Doing action: ConfigureUsers
Action 00:49:34: ConfigureUsers. 
Action start 00:49:34: ConfigureUsers.
MSI (s) (EC:60) [00:49:34:713]: Invoking remote custom action. DLL: 
C:\WINNT\Installer\MSI2.tmp, Entrypoint: ConfigureUsers
MSI (s) (EC:A0) [00:49:34:713]: Generating random cookie.
MSI (s) (EC:A0) [00:49:34:713]: Created Custom Action Server with PID 1108 
(0x454).
MSI (s) (EC:98) [00:49:34:768]: Running as a service.
MSI (s) (EC:5C) [00:49:34:780]: Hello, I'm your 32bit Impersonated custom 
action server.
Action ended 00:49:34: ConfigureUsers. Return value 3.

My installer is using these extensions.

         xmlns:netfx="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/NetFxExtension";  
         xmlns:util="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/UtilExtension";
        xmlns:fw="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/FirewallExtension";

It's presumably these extensions that cannot run on Windows 2000 because it has 
an old version of the Visual C++ runtime.

Would installing a newer version of the VC++ runtime on the Windows 2000 allow 
the installer to run?
