Is it really missing files or is it just suffering from the 6.1 Updater bug that fails to recognize the CFIDE location? If you're seeing this bug, you'll get an error about a missing tag lib having to do with internationalization, if I remember correctly.
It happened to me with a J2EE install. I upgraded to Windows XP recently and installed ColdFusion 6.1. The CFIDE ran. I know because you have to log in to finish the install. I applied the updater (not 5 minutes after the install) and the administrator died with the aforementioned error. Anyway, this particular error has been discussed in CF-Talk, and the MM forums (searchable via groups.google.com). Basically, the updater puts half its files in the wrong location (either under C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\ or C:\JRun4\servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war).
