This is a weird installation issue. If I install on VMWare virtual machine or a no-name desktop PC, the $Docs and $Progs directories are copied properly. When I use the same ISO to install on my DELL laptop or an old IBM PII desktop, neither of them is copied. The other directories, $$ and $1 are copied normally.

Does anyone have an idea as to why this may be happening? I cannot figure out what changes the conditions of the installation. I even tried a plain-Jane installation, no drivers, programs, tweaks or anything else, same thing. My Brand Name computers do not like to copy $Docs and $Progs.

Did you ever find an answer? I'm having the exact same problem.

Post your answer file, wothout the cd-key in it and we can see if we can track it down.

I can add that those two sets of folders are not copied in the same time..The $$ and $1 are be copied in text mode as far as I know....but the @Docs and $progs is copied somewhere between T-13 and T-6 in GUI install...maybe that helps narrow the issue.
