Me again,

Don't be alarmed, when vs_setup.msi brings you back to the Setup Dialog box, It still says that MDAC 9.0 is a prerequsite. It completes the installation of MDAC after Reboot, and continues to install properly.

When prompted to reboot do so, this is a known compatability issue. Failure to reboot now will force you to reboot when installinfg VS2005. After reboot the vs_setup.msi should take over.
