Battlefield 2142

I had previously owned a copy of BF2142, and then Downloaded the Northern Strike package via the now defunct EA Link.  However after re-installing it on my new gaming computer last year, I wasn't able to access NS, and the Cust Support at EA had no record of me having the NS package, even though my stats clearly indicated otherwise>
Today I received my NEW copy of BF2142 Deluxe Edition with NS Package already included.  I can load the game fine to v 1.40, but when I attempt to UPGRADE it takes me to DEAD pages (404 Errors),  I would like to finally PROPERLY install and enjoy this game again.  I can successfully log into BOTH my EA Master acct, and my Origin acct, however Origin does NOT recognize my game, nor will it allow me to update it.  

HELP PLEASE!!

    I have done a fresh 64 Bit Windows 8 install .   Installed 2142 from disk. Tried installing 1.51 patch and it says "You already have a newer version installed"

    I installed the 1.4 full patch then

     Tried installing 1.51 patch and it says "You already have a newer version installed"

    So I tried starting the game with the 1.4 patch installed. run as administrator and Win XP SP3 compat.

    Started it from the DVD Autorun. Start BF 2142.  It says please insert the DVD-ROM and restart application.
