The easiest way to do this with an msi created with VS.NET is to simply exclude the dialog that allows the user to select the app folder because this is also the dialog that shows the per-user or per-machine installation option. Then once you have built your release setup, open the MSI with Orca, add a new row to the Property table with:
Property: ALLUSERS
Value: 2
This will cause the install to default to per-machine as long as the person running the setup has admin priviliges.
If you want to include the app folder selection dialog you will have to make a lot more modifications to the msi to hide the AllUsers option group.
