Here's commandline to use when installing. Make sure both MST files are processed. Some people have claimed that /qb-! doesn't work and that /qr is one to use. Both have worked on my tests and since I prefer progress-bar without cancel I'm using /qb-!.
These notes are correct for HP OEM version 6.1.0.42 that comes with DC7100 desktops.

The information provided worked somewhat for me. I used Easy CD & DVD Creator 6.x Basic. Copy the contents of the CD to the distribution directory. You must create two packages in SMS and then use one to launch the other first then once both have run you can restart the computer. This allows you to register the required DLLs without being an administrative user. If the DLLs are not registered then the application will not run.
SMS PACKAGES
1. Automated - using the following command:
MSIEXEC /qb+! /i "ECDC6.msi" reboot=rs ALLUSERS=2 RebootYesNo=No TRANSFORMS=1033.MST /l*v "%temp%\Roxio Easy CD and DVD Creator 6.log"
Make sure that you use the elevated rights option and allow user interaction. Make sure to not have this program reboot.
2. Automated and Reg - using the following command:
RegisterDLL.cmd
Create a file called RegisterDLL.cmd in the same directory and at the root of of the cd you copied to your distribution directory. The contents of the file are as follows:
Save the file. Make this program runs with elevated rights and user interaction and select to have the Automated program you created earlier run prior to this one (this is an option in SMS to "Run First"). Make sure to advertise the "Automated and Reg" program but it will run the Automated first. Also make sure to have this program restart the computer.
FINAL
After the reboot the DLLs and EXE files should be registered as required and the application should now run and work.
I'm a beginner MSI builder and packaged this MSI on my 2nd attempt. This site has been an overwhelming help to me and my workmates as we have been recently been tasked to convert nearly 100 programs into MSIs (for a university).
I went over your suggestions, streamlined them and used the following:
1) I went on the CD and copied the ECDC6.msi, data.cab and 1033.mst into my network directory.
2) Opened 1033.mst with installshield and pointed it to ECDC6.msi
a) Edited the shortcuts that I needed.
b) Saved as.. ECDC6.msi (This allowed me to not mess with the transform)
3) Created a file registerdll.cmd with the following information:
4) Ran Installshield Repackager and ran the registerdll.cmd as a installation monitoring install and made a 2nd MSI named "Roxio Finalize.msi"
5) Deployed ECDC6.msi over GP and then Roxio Finalize.msi.
That's all I did and it worked! To get rid of the Drag-to-Disc and AudioCentral in taskbar we told them to not be in the taskbar and then copied the ntuser.dat in my user into the default user. It's a little messy but gets the job done!
Thanks AppDeploy.com community! BTW I also used your Adobe Acrobat Video to re-package Adobe Acrobat.
Even with "EnableUpdater" set to zero, this wonderful software still nags the user if they want to enable updates every sixty days. If you re-apply the date value for "LastTimeUpdaterReminded" every sixty days (for users on public-access PCs that get a fresh user profile every time, as in my case) then you can prevent the user from being nagged to update.
This web page gives you the decimal date value for today's date (or calculates it for any given date).
Make sure you choose Decimal (instead of Hex) when entering this into the registry or otherwise making a new registry patch.
