Maybe http://www.infoq.com/news/2009/02/WiX30 can help you. But in your case the first thing to do would be to check the proper .NET Fx version is installed on the target system.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Calling an url during install process You can use a custom action for this. If you can implement a .NET based CA your code can be very simple (use a WebClient instance to connect to the URL). Make sure your CA displays a proper progress text, so while your setup checks the URL the user knows the setup is not blocked.

I have a new requirement I'm not sure how to meet. The install package needs to call an url during the install process in silent mode. I need to validate a url is accessible from the box the application is installing before the actual install starts. It doesn't require any user interaction so opening a browser and navigate to the url is not really an option. Is this possible using WiX? If so, how? Thanks!
