I can confirm this bug. Star Wars Empire at War and Age of Empires 3 fail to
start the installer on a wow64 wineprefix, but the installer starts fine on a
classic 32 bit wineprefix.

Both applications are 32 bit applications, but apparently InstallShield is
x86-64 aware and has some x86-64 components which it tries to use in a wow64
prefix. Both  games install fine on a 64 bit Windows 7 installation.

Apparently SW:EAW uses InstallShield 11 and Age of Empires 3 uses InstallShield
12. They fail with different errors, I'll attach logs. Age of Empires 3 has a
demo available, but I have not tested if it has the same problem.
