XP Unattended Install - Blank OK Dialogue

I am having a problem with unattended installation of Metaframe XP 1.0 FR2.

I have the same issue if I use unattend.exe/answer file or is using an MST file. Both methods run through the installation, join the server to the IMA datastore (am using MS SQL2000) and report in event viewer that MSIEXEC completed successfully. Everything seems to be working fine.

However, right at the end of the installation routine an empty dialogue box is displayed which has no text at all, just an OK button. This needs to be manually clicked to close msiexec.exe and reboot the server. (The eventlog reports that the install was successfull and the server will be rebooted before this dialogue is displayed)

Have tried regmon/filemon to see if I could spot any permissions issues - no I could identify. Have also used the msi log analizer which tells me "The count has been decremented to -1" but also that "The installation was successfull".

Anybody any ideas?
