co-workers laptop

my co-worker's laptop's power supply went out and he had some games on his hd before the ps went out. he got his laptop fixed and try to reinstall the same games and they will not work. i updated all of the drivers and directx. is there anything else that could cause this.

thanks

welcome to daniweb mate! as for not posting support questions in certain forums, it will usually say at the top of the page whether you can or not.
