New generation PCs vs Old Games

[Arsalan Mughal]

Hello guys I have just purchased a new pc. Its specifications are:

Intel core i5 6500 Skylake Processor.

Asus Z170 Pro Gaming Motherboard.

Asus Strix R9 380x 4Gb Card.

16 Gb Ram.

1 Tb Hard disk.

Now coming to the problem. I am trying to play my old collection of games which includes TOMB RAIDER ANNIVERSARY, HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS PART 2, BATMAN ARKHAM ASYLUM, BATMAN ARKHAM CITY etc, etc but I get the following error :

"A required security module cannot be activated. This program cannot be executed (8016).

My pc runs and handle new games like ASSASSINS CREED UNITY, THE EVIL WITHIN and TOMB RAIDER (2013), BATMAN ARKHAM ORIGINS very well but i don't know why the other games are not running?
I am not a pc whiz so if anyone can help me I would appreciate.

I know all my games ran on Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and even on Windows 10 when I had my old core 2 duo pc but I'm confused why my games are not running on my new pc. I tried to play these games on my new pc by installing windows 7 & 8.1 but still it gave the same error. Please any one here who can help me?

And 1 thing more that the all collection of games which I have contain PIRATED GAMES.

Waiting for your good responses..

read about it a bit, it's a problem with skylake proccessors and the security software.It happens in some latest games as well. Some got it solved via a BIOS update.
