You may need to reprogram the car after the battery was changed and will need to be done by a dealer...
How long was the car without power? It really shouldn't prevent it from starting anyway, just from running properly because if the power was off long enough the PC would need to do a re- leaning process for all input/output sensors in the engine management system. Start by making sure the car is in park or neutral and hold the brake pedal down when trying to start it, if it doesn't start, check all of the fuses/links and even relays inside the car and also in the power supply box under the hood. Let me know if/what you find and we will go from there
