Try to borrow an XP CD because even if you get a copy of the file the problem is as much about getting the other PC to start
An outside chance is this
Items in blue which are underlined are clickable to give more information about the process
Start the System Restore Utility at a command prompt
1. Restart your computer, and keep tapping F8 during the initial start-up until you get options, select Safe Mode with a Command Prompt then press enter.
2. Log on to your computer with an administrator account or with an account that has administrator credentials.
3. Type the following command at a command prompt, and then press ENTER:
%systemroot%\system32\restore\rstrui.exe
4. Follow the instructions that appear on the screen to restore your computer to an earlier state.
Look for the most recent system checkpoint created before the errors to restore from
For additional information about the Safe mode with a command prompt, click 315222 to see a description of the Safe Mode Boot Options in Windows XP

That file is in the I386 folder on the CD and gets expanded during install. I doubt that you or your mom have a I386 folder in your comp. Normally it is not there. Can you borrow a CD from a friend? It would need to be which ever version you are running (home or Pro).
Found this link. READ HERE.
He also has a link to the file you need.
