Installing from an .msi file

You can install .msi files with the msiexec.exe utility. This command is built into Wine, so you don't have to install Windows Installer from Microsoft.
If the .msi file is called msifile.msi you just have to type msiexec /i msifile.msi and the application will be installed.

Note:
Make sure you're not using a native version of msi.dll, but the builtin one.
