Unfortunately I don't have a computer to test that "forcepae" on myself. If it didn't work then I guess there isn't much you can do except put older version on the computer.
You might be able to install the old version by making a live USB with the ISO file, then use Plop Boot Manager (on a CD) to boot the USB stick. Just download Plop, burn it to a CD, boot computer with both the Plop CD and the live USB plugged-in and Plop should offer choice to boot the USB. (Use something like UnetBootin to make your live USB.)
Another alternative would be to use another distro that offers non-pae kernels. One nice one I've tested out is MX-14. It is similar to Linux Lite, easy to use and also uses the same Xfce desktop environment. Here is their download page: http://www.mepiscommunity.org/download-links. Just scroll down to the non-pae option. I checked and the size of download is 698MB, so should fit on a CD.
