Prerequisite - "Copy from Source" not working with Spaning
I have rewritten my problem install fresh in 2010 and have run into a problem. If I use automatic or custom spanning (setup fills 3 CDs) all of my prerequisites will try to download from the web even though I have chosen to copy them from the source media. InstallShield will build the folder with all of my prerequisites, but the setup will not use them. Is there any way I can fix this for a spanned release? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have included the logs with the install stopped after the first prereq tries to install. I can't see a difference that would do a download in the case of a spanned install and a from media install when everything is on one disk.
I am trying to find any reason or a workaround to the problem that will allow my Prerequisites to install from the source media (extract from setup.exe is too slow) AND allow me to span multiple CDs.
Thanks in advance for any insight.
