eh extracting is obviously not the problem since he can install them.
they crash when he tries to start them.
you wouldnt even be able to install it and certinally not try to start it if you cant extract it ;)

maybe colin4 and juiced is having the same problem bf1942 has and that is, if you are using a higher refreshrate than 60hz bf1942 wont start.
this can be fixed by editing a file to allow bf1942 to work with any refreshrate.
so if you are using higher refreshrates try putting it on 60hz and see if it works.

check your gfx drivers also.

edit: the file to change in battlefield is this file VideoDefault.con
change the "renderer.allowAllRefreshRates 0" to "renderer.allowAllRefreshRates 1" and see if it works (you only need to change this if you are using a higher refreshrate than 60hz).
or just do as i said above.
