I need a lot of help. Recently my computer recommended I reinstall Battle For Middle Earth I with the right settings. Ever since I reinstalled it five minutes into the game I just die! Yes my castle makes an exploding sound and I hear a death quote (depending on what faction) such as,"We've lost the citadel!" This happens with every faction and it makes me angry. Any help or suggestions on what I can do?

Happened to me too... I bought a used game and heard it was some kind of anti piracy thing from EA... Instant kills your base. Just install the patch and everything should go fine.
