The first package is the main product installation. During this installation the user will choose one of two product configurations.
Depending on the configuration the user selects, there are two Example packages, one of which must be installed to support the main package. You would like the install package to install the main application and whatever example package supports the configuration the user selects.
Please confirm that this is what you would like to do. There may be several different options, depending on the exact nature of your installation.

Please excuse me if I don't have this correct, but I am understanding you to say that you have two programs. The one you wish to install first is NOT a Windows Installer package. The second one IS a Windows Installer package. You would like to install both during the same install session, with the non-WI program being installed first.
The easiest way to do this is probably to write a short wrapper routine that will install the non-WI package, wait for completion, and then launch the WI package. On your distribution media, you would then have something very similar to our package.
In the root, we have a setup.exe (wrapper program) with several folders containing installation packages. Some of the packages are redistributed pre-requisites, and the wrapper tests to see that they are present, installing them as needed. When the prerequisites are in place, the wrapper initiates the MSI package for our main application.
The same method may work for your installation needs.
