I am able to create a patch via the patch creation wizard, but when applying the patch to the target, the install hangs at the "Copying Files" section. This seem to be the case only if I install the target from over our network. If i copy the target's files to my local drive/or if I install the target from a CD and apply the patch, all seems fine. It almost seems as though it is hanging when it is looking for the original files. Has anyone else seen this happen? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

"I see some have come across the Windows Installer bug that requires a patch to have access to the original files (in their original installation location) in order to  run (see MS KB article Q268800). "

this might be the cause of the problem...
