I have written an msi file that has trouble installing dlls into the windows system directory when the user does not have administrator priviledges. Is it possible for my msi file to prompt the user during installtion for the administrator username and password, so that the install can be performed with administrator priviledges?

You could add Privileged as a launch condition so your setup will display an error message and abort if the user doesn't have the required permissions.
