A custom installer DLL would do it.

No, after the installation of such cab, at the final screen is written:
"App was succesfully installed .... To complete the installation is
required reset. Press OK to .." or something like that. No external
process..

I've seen couple of cabs that after installation default installer
(wceload.exe) requested reset (not from setup.dll).
How to make such cab? I'm creating cab by writing .inf files namualy and
using cabwiz.

At a guess, call ShellExecute on another app (perhaps you main app, with
a command line argument) and have that poll the setup process, once it
closes then do the reset.
