does the msi package allow you to use a switch to changes its directory location? can you open the msi with something like orca and change the pathway to the installer?

Have you tried using ORCA and adding an entry under the property table using 'targetdir'? You could also try running your msi with the command 'msiexec /a' which will run it as an administrative install and you might be able to edit it after that to change the target directory entry. If you need more info please ask.
