    Ok. that sounds like a rather low one (this is before they had the launcher show the base game version only but shows the expansions one.

    Do you have the disc version of the game ?

    If so, my suggestion is this:

    Uninstall your game completely and clean out your registery with ccleaner. Then reinstall base game. DO NOT PATCH THE GAME THROUGH THE LAUNCHER, rather turn off automatic updates right away. Then install HELS, the game will automatically patch to the version that is needed for HELS, allow that. Then install LN. Same again. Let the game update itself to the version LN needs but not further than that.

    With this, you won't be able to use the online features and many store items won't download but you're probably able to play the game.
