ShadowWolf is correct. You need to run the launcher first.

The guide to installing FS2 in my sig is a little old but the basic concepts haven't changed so you might want to take a quick look at it.

I guess he downloaded the right version for FreeSpace Open, he simply did not remember its version number. :)
