Installing VisualStudio 2003 in MY folder

I have been trying to install Microsoft Visual Studio 2003 on my machine for some time now.
Usually, its pretty easy, just select the components, their folders and there you go but this time the installer wasn't allowing me to choose the folder for the main (root) component.

I used to have it installed at c:\program files\... but I had uninstalled this few weeks back. Now I wanted to install it in f:\program files\...

I tried searching google for finding a solution for this problem but couldn't find much. Finally, I manually removed all registry entries having the path to the previous installation of Visual Studio 2003 and it worked!
