You need the main game to be able to play D-Mods. If you don't have it, and you can't install anything, you're kinda screwed

Although I think FreeDink (an alternative version of the main game engine) might be able to be played from a memory stick or even a CD, not sure. Worth a try.

Edit: Oh wait - this computer meaning your dad's? But you want to play on yours?
1) Install the main game if it isn't already.
2) Download D-Mod of choice, taking Stone of Balance as an example you'll get a file called "sob.dmod". Stick that on a CD or whatever, put it on the computer with Dink on, and double click it. It should install fine.
3) If it doesn't work, you can try it manually. Get an unzipping program such as 7-Zip and extract the .dmod file twice (it's a .tar.bz2). Put that folder you get inside your Dink folder, this is C:\Program Files\Dink Smallwood on Win XP and somewhere similar on Vista/7.
4) If it still doesn't work, you've done something wrong
