I have a windows service and I need to figure out how to deploy it with an installation application.
 
Googling the term "install vb .net windows service" produced the following:

Creating a Windows Service in VB.NET - Adding an Installer to the Project

This is part of a larger article about creating Windows Services in VB .NET.

Well, I knew about Installutil before, but I was wondering how to make it simple to install on computers not running .net. Possibly something like the setup wizard for applications.
 
Just download the dotnetfx.exe (distributable net env) from Microsoft. Try google for direct link. Do not forget to read the instructions how to use it.

Good luck.
