Windows Installer not getting included???

Can some1 pls help me with this

I have recently installed .net framework bootstrapped plug in to include mdac
and .net framework in my custom application setup. Now the problem is, MS
Windows Installer 1.5 is getting included the package?

I was trying to install my app on a computer running Windows 98 and got an
error that windows installer information in not included and setup
terminated?

How can I fix this?

Examine your .NET framework redist carefully because it might be a Beta or
something. IIRC, MSI 1.5 was a temporary (beta?) version between 1.2 and 2.0
and may have been included in dotnetfx redists in the same timeframe, but I
don't know that for sure.

Could it be because of XP SP2, as it installs Windows Installer 2.0, just a
guess?
