I've pointed out that mixing mods in the same game can cause problems. Could this be a problem with the registry by any chance.

the thing is that people often don't fully get rid of all the files when uninstalling so the reinstall mixes with old corrupted files and re-corrupts the new game
get him to uninstall the game then manually open the computer files to go in and delete the files that are still left behind, then run a good registry cleaner before reinstalling the game.
after reinstalling the stock game see what he has and don't overlook he may be using the wrong resolution which might just have the tab out of view on his monitor
if he can 100% confirm all game files were deleted prior to doing a reinstall then and only then would I be looking at the dvd which could be tested by borrowing someone elses copy to do the reinstall if he has any friends with the game
in my experience as far as dvds go they work or threy don't but I never heard of one having minor in game glitches
