If you are going to urse uri's, try file:///Program%20Files.....
if on the same disk,
or better still,
re-install docbook stuff in directories without spaces.

If it is on a different disk, then it depends on the XSLT engine.
There seems to be no definitive answer.

relative files are the right answer,
and catalogues are even better, and longer term,
but you still have the same uri protocol issues.
