      I'd recommend using a more professional Windows Installer creation package, like InnoSetup, or Wise Package Studio, or something else. You're starting to get into customaizations that are either beyond the capabilities of the basic installer project in Visual Studio, or are just too much of a pain to implement in it.

          In Visual Studio, you'd have to crete the custom form, add it to the dialogs, then write all the code behind deciding what to do and how to do it, then write the Installer script that's going to do the actual file copy and setup. I can't give you a step-by-step on how to do this in a forum post, because, frankly, it would take up a small book. I highly suggest picking up a professional install generation package, where most of this stuff is going to be done for you.
