 - Check if the particular image (file) is being accessed on the tftp server by reviewing the tftp server's logs , and check the transfer status
 - Type dir at the AP: prompt and delete unwanted files (to free up space)
 - Try 'manual command' as explained in https://bayupw.blogspot.com/2008/05/extract-file-or-copy-folder-from-tftp.html
 - Verify md5sum of the distribution image file as present on the tftp server

Like Marce says make sure all other images are deleted from flash: so that there is plenty of space to extract the new image.
Make sure the file you're using is not corrupt - did you check the MD5 checksum?
That's a very old IOS so I'd recommend using the JF15 version: ap3g1-k9w7-tar.153-3.JF15.tar

And make sure Windows firewall is not blocking the TFTP - maybe try turning firewall off while you do the download.

And agreed with Marce - instead of doing the auto-recovery use the manual download process for ROMMON recovery:
