This is how I could fix this.
(1)
For the error ""Oops! Please Correct Your Install Location... ".
Now that you are sure that you are pointing to the right URL, (the code here checks for 'sites', 'all' and 'modules') just go ahead and comment the code that (possibly erroneously) shows up an error page using 'errorDisplayPage'
In Civicrm 2.2.7 it is in line 62 in the index.php in sites\all\modules\civicrm\install\index.php
If you are in some other version look for "errorDisplayPage( $errorTitle, $errorMsg );"
comment it out as:
//errorDisplayPage( $errorTitle, $errorMsg );
2) Well you would go a step ahead and there will be another error
"The user account used by your web-server needs to be granted write access to the following directory..."
Now this has something to do with the 'DIRECTORY_SEPERATOR'.
As I am not sure where to change its value and
I am sure that it can write to sites/default and files/ so I go ahead and comment the relevent code
In version 2.2.7 this check starts at line 269 with code "if ( $installType == 'drupal' )"

Just comment the 'foreach' part as shown below
if ( $installType == 'drupal' ) {
            global $cmsPath;
            $siteDir = getSiteDir( $cmsPath, $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'] );

            // make sure that we can write to sites/default and files/
            $writableDirectories = array( 'sites' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $siteDir . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'files',
                                          'sites' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $siteDir );
/**            foreach ( $writableDirectories as $dir ) {
                $this->requireWriteable( $cmsPath . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $dir,
                    array("File permissions", "Is the $dir folder writeable?", null ),
                    true );
            }
**///Commented by pankaj for error:"The user account used by your web-server needs to be granted write access to the following directory..."        }

Deepak Srivastava, to answer your question, print_r($_SERVER);
on my local Drupal installation (WampServer) on Windows Vista
returns:
