Turn on logging and see where it crashes.
msiexec /i foo.msi c:\install.log
While the core MSI functionality still supports NT 4, some of the additional functionality has dependencies that simply can't support NT 4 anymore. If NT 4 is really important, you have to identify where it's crashing, verify this is a dependency issue and then refactor.
Personally IMO NT4 was released in 1996 and shouldn't be supported any longer from an ISV perspective. From an IT perspective, NT 4 shouldn't be deployed at all due to security concerns.

I have try to input "msiexec /i foo.msi c:\install.log" in cmd..
but it does not work and show "Incorrect command line parameter"
As i use installshield 5.0 and 11 before with installscript, it is work fine in NT.
Now, I am using installshield 2009 with basic MSI to do the same thing

If you have not, please refer to Command-Line Options for msiexec.exe command line options.
