Can TT5 on SD Card Be Repaired / Renewed

Hi, pal at work had TTN5 running on his PALM via original TT SD card.
Card file system has been corrupted so he has various .CHK files in his folders and it no longer runs. Sad

Would I be able to use my TT5 CD to re-install the files onto his SD card (or more likely a new one)? He would then use his existing activation key to activate the software.
Would this work or would he be better off calling TomTom support for a replacement (and what are the chances they'd be helpful?)?

THIS maybe worth a try.

Doesn't have his own CD 'cause product was bought on SD card (often the way for TT).
He will have both his product code and his activation code as it is a pukka version so does that make TT support the best option or wil they want to sell him an upgade or charge lots for a replacement SD card?
I thought using my CD and his codes would save him some hassle that's all.

It would most likely work. I think the software can be downloaded for free from TT's website anyway, Navigator 6.030 certainly can.
Then for DIY all he would need is the activation key for his existing map.
The software isn't keyed to any device but the maps are.
