I want to display the prerequisites dialog after the actual installer starts, somewhere after "InstallValidate", not when the setup begins. Can I change this?

Thanks

Not with InstallShield 2008 or older.

Never done it but I imagine playing with the sequencing in the InstallUISequence and InstallExecuteSequence tables might work...

Prerequisites come from setup.exe, before the msi part of the install is launched.

So this topic should probably be moved from 'Vendor-neutral MSI topics'? smile.gif I imagined the OP had a custom dialog...

Oh, it was only my assumption that cornel_gav is using InstallShield.

@cornel_gav: are you using InstallShield (then I'll move this thread to the InstallShield section of the forum)? If not please tell us what you are using and how you are installing the prerequisites.
