I had exactly the same error (same file, at a point when 3% is installed), but it came because of a scratch in the 1st disk. Back then I was running W95 with DX8.0 built for W95. BUT I don't believe it's because of DX8.1 version anyway => it's always better than the version before that.

If the cd is scratched, you could try installing it to another system that has a better CD Drive, a burning one, for example (worked for me). They tend to be better in reading scratched disks. In most cases it just means getting a new CD.

Or, if you somehow get past that file and the installation goes on, you can ask someone to get that file for you.
