I actually figured out the issue. The VC++ MSM files on our old build server are newer than the MSM files on the build server to which I was moved and was causing our 5.0 to 5.1 installers to run into an issue where the newer installers had older MSMs integrated and caused versioning issues. The MSI would remove the VC++ files but not put the new ones down because they were older. Thanks for the response!
