I suspect you have Vista as several others have had the same error...

Try installing as an administrator, if you don't know how, turn off UAC in Vista in the control panel under user accounts, then try rebooting your system and then install it. I'm running XP so that's unfortunately all I can help you with...

Could also be corrupt file, but if it passed the torrent hashcheck I doubt it...

Hint: If you get it to work and get hit with a black screen, with a message like "Input Not Supported", most likely your screen is not compatible with the game. As my own screen is 1440x900 I almost always run into this issue when running a game for the first time as they are often set to run in full screen initially.
In that case, there should be something called, or close to, gameexe.ini, in the folder you installed it, and you need to open it with notepad and change the screen parameter. It might differ for different games, but for Clannad (playing it with the english patch which is 99% complete^^) it was "#INIT_SCREENMODE=0" for full screen mode and "#INIT_SCREENMODE=1" for windowed mode...
