Chances are really good that you're not correctly preserving the complete directory tree where those files are going. In many ways, a patch is just a repair on one feature. The Windows Installer Service has no memory of your whole directory tree. Generally, you have to preserve things like INSTALLLOCATION or INSTALLFOLDER in your registry and recovery them using a registry search for repair and patch to work properly.
