Situation 1: your video card is not installed properly and so your computer is running on onboard memory on your motherboard, so no games will run
Situation 2: Your games are not installed properly or they are bootleg versions so are not working.
To check: START|RUN type dxdiag and check does it say GeFORCE 6200 PCI-E. Also it should be PCI Express not PCI, so make sure you installed it in the respective PCI-E slot.
