No if you used the key too many times you'll have to do the whole calling thing. When they ask you how many other computers you have xp on say "None this is my first time installing XP" And they'll give you an activation code.

Yea you'll need your mom's code first. If it works then great but if not then you'll get to a screen where they give you a phone number to call.
