You extracted the contents of the .zip file before starting the install, right?

Yeah... Typically if you use a third-party archive manager, like WinRAR, WinZIP, or 7-Zip, and try to execute a program directly out of the archive, only that program will be extracted and executed; none of its dependent files (if any) will be extracted, which, in this case, is ALL of the game data. So if you don't extract everything first, the installer will have nothing to install and fail miserably.
