QSR International have two useful guides on their website you can Google, "NVivo9-Network-Administrators-Guide.pdf" and "NVivo9-SCCM-Deployment-Guide.pdf".

In these documents are listed an installation matrix with the pre-requisites (depends) all of which are already packages available here on WPKG. The documents include hyperlinks to the full download files for both x32 and x64 versions of the latest NVivo 9 plus the pre-requisite installers. The only other things you need are the PIDKEY for your organisation and an activation.xml file.

Extract the full NVivo 9 installers using /a to create admin install points. I put them as separate x32 and x64 sub folders and put the corresponding x32 and x64 MS SQL server 2008 installer in the each folder.
