I am using DIFx to install a driver for a device that gets a firmware update by a custom action later in the sequence. This updater CA needs the driver to be installed, so if DIFx schedules a reboot, I would need to find out, issue a ForceReboot myself and return to my installer after reboot.
Is there a way to detect and cancel the ScheduleReboot that comes from DIFx?

This property is supported starting from Windows Installer 4.0.

Windows Vista has Windows Installer 4.0 by default. For Windows XP SP3, I think it's version 3.1. But you can always have the latest Windows Installer setup package as a prerequisite to your setup.
