A longer explanation might be helpful here:

Since you cannot use the recommended method you will basically need to 
figure out all the dependencies and install them first.
You can find the (direct) dependencies here:
http://bioconductor.org/packages/2.1/bioc/html/affy.html

and then you will need to download and install them first. If any of 
those packages have dependencies, you will need to resolve them in a 
similar manner.

best wishes
