I used the setup.exe program to download from the internet.  It put the
files exactly where it wanted them, and I didn't change that.  I didn't
dowload the tarballs, the setup.exe program downloaded the tarballs. 
They are all there:

I ran the setup.exe program again, and told it to install from
directory, and it showed itself installing all the files, naming them as
it went and showing the installation progress.

So, install from directory doesn't work?  Why is it an option?

Please tell me what will work.  I don't want to spend another several
hours letting the program download from the internet (all over again)
only to find that isn't the problem.

Thanks,
Bret
