Problems installing

I have received my copy of OFF Phase 2 today and have a problem installing it because of the following error with the skin pack.

The first part of the install went fine but when I install the skin pack I get

File corrupt or unreadable
Campaigns\CampaignData\skins\off_Camel_Ace_RFC_1_RFC-43 1917_CecilF_King.dds

I have disabled DEP and UAC and have patched CFS3 and flown a mission. Obviously I am using Vista 32. Also I have received a copy from two people and both are throwing up this error in the skin pack. Not sure if its the same file as I didn't note the first attempt with the other disc.

Any ideas?

Incidentallyif I get it to work, I will be available to pass it on to anyone who needs a copy.
 
Maybe clarify a bit more.

Does this error occur during the skins install, or did the install go fine and the error just occurs when you try to play the game?

Is the game installed and playable minus the one ace skin, or you are not able to play?
 
Error occurred when installing but I was wrong about the other disc. I eventually got the lot installed by switching between discs. I now have a runtime error 429 when starting the game but this hasn't stopped me playing quick combat. Weather I will be able to do more than that I don't know yet as I am doing something else at the moment.
 
I'm running vista as well and also get the runtime error 429 as the manager starts.....it hasn't made any difference to the game running for me.

Glad you got sorted.
 
Same here. I think this is a common issue with Vista but does not stop the game from running nicely.
