Im not positive but I think that you have to place the patch in the program file which should be something like
C:program files/EA Games/Command and Conquer Generals
Go to that folder and run setup from there on the patch that you downloaded. I think there should be some file that gets overwritten to make this work. If it doesnt work installing this in the Generals folder maybe you can go a folder deeper and install in the patch folder. Im sure someone here has done this and knows already. I will ask in game lobby.
I could be wrong but I would attempt this to see. If not let me know and I will investigate further but this may work.

Does the installation appear to have completed correctly from the download?
