You need to provide some more information before anyone can help you. What OS are you using? XPhome?
What game are you trying to instal? Red Alert original version or Red Alert 2
Red Alert was designed for Win 95 and its difficult to get it to install and run on later OS. In theory, you should be able to modify the compatibility BEFORE trying to install via the CD drive/properties menu.
Also, you can try to make a CD image file using a program such as Alcohol 120% and mount it on a virtual drive and then istal from there.

Autoexec.nt is a text file, probably some virus or spyware has deleted, hidden it or corrupted it. Either create a new one in notepad and enter following text:
@echo off
REM AUTOEXEC.BAT is not used to initialize the MS-DOS environment.
REM AUTOEXEC.NT is used to initialize the MS-DOS environment unless a
REM different startup file is specified in an application's PIF.
