Most likely OS corruption. I doubt it's hardware as well. Normally power outages aren't a big problem unless it's doing some kind of file operation involving critical OS files (say like a Windows Update or something similar) and it gets into a state it can't back out of.
I'm somewhat surprised that her laptop turned off when she pulled the cord out since the laptop has a battery and should run off battery power unless she doesn't have the battery attached to the laptop at the time.
If you're not familiar with repairing the OS, do what aznboi128 suggested - remove the drive and either connect it in an enclosure or plug it into a desktop PC and pull all the files you want off it and reinstall the OS. If there's a last known good configuration (it should be on the list where you can pick safe mode), try that as well to see if it makes any difference.
