Uh, so why does your thread title specify "Additional Content"? The Additional Content is just an item that opens a folder with bonus wallpapers and such.
As for the other games...
A lot of the games have been upgraded with community-created unofficial patches that fix a lot of their bugs and compatibility problems. You can find them here:
Command & Conquer 1:
- Nyerguds' C&C95 v1.06c revision 3 patch (which also adds bonus missions originally exclusive to the Playstation and Nintendo 64 versions of the game)
Note that this patch fixes two quite common and completely fatal game crashes (top-of-map reconnaissance crash, stealth crash), so installing it is strongly advised. - HD music pack, with stereo music for the game.
Red Alert 1:
- Funkyfr3sh's automatic Red Alert 1 patcher/installer (The thread also has briefing videos for the expansion missions, converted from the Playstation version of the game)
- Nyerguds' main.mix cleanup for TFD/TUC (Not really needed, but cleans up about a gigabyte of unnecessary files in the RA1 folder. Unpack in the game folder, run "patch_main.bat", let it finish, and then delete the files you extracted.)
- HD music pack, with stereo music for the game.
Tiberian Sun:
Red Alert 2:
- I advise installing the CnCNet online play installer for RA2/YR. Even if you're not interested in online play, it comes with a bunch of automatic fixes. It should automatically take care of the "black screen" issue, and has a configuration tool that allows further tweaking of the game's settings.
Generals:
- GenTool seems to be the main patch for Generals these days. The website is kind of vague on what it does besides restoring multiplayer and adding anti-cheat, but I heard it does a lot to make it work better on modern OSes too.
Renegade:
- The Tiberian Technologies patch fixes loads of issues on Renegade.
There are tips on how to get my money back?

The games simply have their problems... it's just general "old games on new systems" issues. There's nowhere else you can buy them that will make them magically work better, especially since the DRM of the original CD versions is no longer supported by Windows itself.
I'm just a volunteer here who knows a lot about getting these games running, though. If you choose not to play the games at all, just because you don't want to look into the available community patches, that's your own business, but, me just being a volunteer, I have no idea how Origin's refund systems work. You'll have to figure that one out yourself, sorry.
- 7 years ago@Nyerguds exactly i'm trying to figure it out. I was deceived! I want to help people not to be deceived.
The game is not working for sale! The rest is irrelevant. Buying a product like a computer you do not write drivers for its hardware in a low-level programming language. Understand it and be careful
gl hf mate!
