Hi all,
  I'm trying to detect if certain pixel and vertex shaders are installed
on a machine. I have followed the exampled in the Wix 3.0 help, but I'm
not getting the desired error message.

<PropertyRef Id="WIX_DIRECTX_PIXELSHADERVERSION"/>
<PropertyRef Id="WIX_DIRECTX_VERTEXSHADERVERSION"/>  

<CustomAction Id="CA_CheckPixelVertexShaderVersion" Error="[ProductName]
This application requires DirectX 9 with pixel shader and vertex shader
version 2.0 or greater, for Previewer to work correctly." />

<InstallExecuteSequence>    
    <!-- Things to do during install -->
    <Custom Action="CA_CheckPixelVertexShaderVersion"
After="WixQueryDirectXCaps">
      <![CDATA[(WIX_DIRECTX_PIXELSHADERVERSION < 200) AND
(WIX_DIRECTX_VERTEXSHADERVERSION < 200) ]]>
    </Custom>
    
    <!-- Things to do during uninstall -->    
    
  </InstallExecuteSequence>

  <InstallUISequence>
    <Custom Action="CA_CheckPixelVertexShaderVersion"
After="WixQueryDirectXCaps">
      <![CDATA[(WIX_DIRECTX_PIXELSHADERVERSION < 200) AND
(WIX_DIRECTX_VERTEXSHADERVERSION < 200) ]]>
    </Custom>
    
  </InstallUISequence>

When I run the above code on a virtual machine, which obviously does not
have the required pixel shader support, the log files says...
Action 14:36:53: WixQueryDirectXCaps. 
Action start 14:36:53: WixQueryDirectXCaps.
WixQueryDirectXCaps:  Error 0x8876086a: GetDeviceCaps call failed
Action ended 14:36:54: WixQueryDirectXCaps. Return value 1.

But My error message is never displayed. 

When I run it on a real machine I correctly get the
WIX_DIRECTX_PIXELSHADERVERSION and WIX_DIRECTX_VERTEXSHADERVERSION
variables set with the right values.

What am I missing/doing wrong?

Thanks,
