Yes, you should be able to open your ISM project and go to "General Information" node under "Installation Information" and for INSTALLDIR just type in F:\123. It will still use INSTALLDIR behind the scenes, but it will be your hard-coded path.
Then if you go to "Files and Folders" node you should see
F:\
+ 123[INSTALLDIR]
Then you could sequence your dialogs to not include the CustomSetup dialog or remove the ability to Change....the path by removing the Change... button and making the edit control a simple label that displays your hard-coded path (you can still use INSTALLDIR, just make it so the user can't change it if you don't want them to be able to.
I hope that helps some. There is more than one way to do it.
