Get a verbose log file and take a look at the properties. They will explain why your condition is firing/not firing.

To enforce this requirement, I have a Condition clause on the Product element of my top-level WiX file like so: <Condition Message="[ProductName] is only supported on Windows 2000, XP (32-bit), or Vista (32-bit)">VersionNT >= 500</Condition> This appears to work correctly on my Windows 2000 development test machine as well as at least some other Windows 2000 installations in the field. However, one user is reporting that the installer refuses to run on his Windows 2000 machine, version 5.00.2195, Service Pack 4. He has sent me screenshots of the dialogs involved, and I am certain that this dialog is being triggered. He also appears to be running Windows 2000 (albeit localized for Germany). What would cause this test to pass on some Win2K machines but not others? I am using WiX 2.0.5808 and the build machine is running Windows XP Professional (32-bit), with SP 2.
