Another way is to install your utility with the msi, write a RunOnce registry key with the command for the utility and then ScheduleReboot. A dialog explaining the need to reboot to finish is nicer than ForceReboot

ScheduleReboot schedules a reboot after the setup completes; the setup doesn't start back up after reboot.
