From InstallShield's help page:

Basic MSI is the Windows Installer-based project type in installshield. Basic MSI projects are recommended in cases where the Windows Installer service should drive the entire installation. They allow you to author your installation using only the native Windows Installer feature set. The geometry of your end user dialogs as well as the flow of your setup user interface (UI) is authored directly in the MSI package, and the Windows Installer Service uses its native user interface rendering capabilities to display the UI to your end users. The advantages of this project type are fully realized if you need to author your installation in an open format.
