HasMSMQ & HASMSMQ are not interchangeable when talking about Windows Installer
Properties. Also Launch Conditions fire the error when the inner text evaluates
to false. Hence
<Condition Message="MSMQ must be installed">
<![CDATA[(HASMSMQ AND VersionNT>=600) OR (HASMSMQ_CORE AND
(VersionNT>500 AND VersionNT<600)) OR Installed]]>
</Condition>
would be a better choice for the inner text (assuming you set HASMSMQ_CORE in a
RegistrySearch for the XP/2003 registry location described below, replace
HASMSMQ_CORE with your own public Property name). However the question is
ambiguous as Vista & Server 2008 are v6.0, Windows 7 & Server 2008 R2 are v6.1
(no mention of Vista in the original question). The above change to the
Condition's inner text would check the HASMSMQ only on Vista/Server 2008 &
above while XP/2003 use the original property which I can only assume is the
expected behaviour.

This approach seems to work for me.
