If when you try to install something on your machine & for the first
time point it to the cabs files , then it should go look there
automatacilly next time...the cab files are located in the directory
below...

Are the cab files in c:\windows\options\cabs?
In any event, you can point to the cabs in the registry.
Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Expand Software
Expand Microsoft
Expand Windows
Expand CurrentVersion
There you'll find a folder called Setup, hightlight it and in the
contents of it on the right of the screen you'll see "SourcePath", edit
the source path to where the cab files are.
