For this to function you will need to make sure your install supports UAC and elevated privileges as the target OS would be Vista or higher to see this type of behavior.
You need to make sure the all deferred custom actions have the value Impersonate="no" set. This will force them to run at the administrator level. If you do not have this value set, all custom actions run with the logged on user privilege set and when UAC is enable this means standard user unless "Run as administrator" has been used. One thing to keep in mind is that immediate actions cannot be elevated, so you will need to make sure you are doing nothing outside the standard user ability in these or you will get a failure.
