OK, so let me guess again...
You have an EXE which does some installation tasks but it also extracts and executes some MSIs?
In that case:
- run the EXE on your packaging box. When the various MSIs appear in your %TEMP% folder, copy them somewhere, then rename them using easy-to-remember names.
- restore your packaging box to its state before you ran the EXE
- run the various MSIs
- NOW capture the EXE.
This way, your capture won't include the running of these MSIs, because Windows Installer will see their installed state and therefore do nothing.
