OK there are two ways to look at this. First you ask yourself what the easyest way is, all this means is you need to point DAZ's installer to the Highest/First folder you installed Poser5 onto. The Wizard can find its way from there! The other is a little more complicated, but more satisfying when working with large Poser directories of other peoples *@#! I've found that many of DAZ's installation directories lack similar names, for a product, through more than one library! This can be overcome very easily, though, if you take the time. First you must set you mind to memorizing the Poser 5 Runtime structure. Most importantly you must realize the geomtries and textures folders must never be renamed or moved. With this is mind you can now point your install wizard to a temp directory somewhere in your My Documents folder. Then your first good look at whats about to be embedded into you Poser runtime. This is the time to think of renaming the libraries to something similar that's easy to remember,like in your instance it may be a great idea to start a series of S1(Stephanie1) folders in you Pose and other libraries. I've gone as far as beggining P5>S1 folders in my libraries! This holds true for the cameras libraries which are a huge pain to navigate because you need to write the name of the camera into your library save! In this case I've started Main>S1, Face>S1, etc. directories. Now I find it very easy to go from one library to another using several of others products at once, else the library names just wo'nt be consistantly similar when you first start using them.
