Two more questions - patching TFD games, issue with Tiberium Wars

Well, I have to say thanks to EA for lying through their back teeth in claiming the games were optimised for Windows 7 era operating systems when they're clearly the same malfunctioning train wrecks we got with TFD. I really don't appreciate such blatantly baseless claims.

Tiberium Wars requests a CD. Obviously I don't have one as it was downloaded through Origin. I cannot patch the game either to 1.09, and cannot understand why. I have tried reinstalling. Kane's Wrath works, somehow, but I want to play the original campaigns and should be able to. I can both patch and play KW.

2nd, any advice on how I can patch the TFD era games? The TFD patches do not work as TFD is not installed.

Win 7 Home Premium Edition 64 bit - should play both games just fine. Please assist.
