visual studio .net setup : Windows Installer is not included in any selected prerequisite?

Hi

I get the following warning when I build my VS2005 setup project:

"WARNING: Windows Installer is not included in any selected prerequisite."

The project installs unmanaged components and was originally created in
VS2003 and converted to VS2005. On most systems the setup runs fine, but it
fails on some customer's systems; I believe the systems all have at least
Windows Installer 2.0 installed.

In the prerequisites options for the setup project it lists Windows
Installer version 2.0 and version 3.1, neither of which is selected.

Can anyone tell me which version of the Windows installer is required to run
s Setup created by a Visual Studio .NET 2005 setup project? Should it run OK
with Windows Installer v2.0?

Thanks,

Windows Installer version 2.0 is fine. That's the version required in the
generate MSI file.
