To see if it is a disk problem, you can try this :

-on your desktop create a new empty folder
-explore (do not launch) your 688 CD and copy everything from it to the empty folder you create on your desktop

if there is no file error message, that's good the cd is okay

Now instead of using the CD to install the game, go into the folder you have on your desktop , in which you copied the CD content, remove the CD and launch the installer from here.

I don't know for Vista specifically, but maybe it is needed to install as an administrator as Vista had some different file installing protection in here.
