I dont have the Windows 98 CD, it came pre installed when I bought the machine.

On my new computer, I have a Hard Drive, but its running low on space, and I wanted to add the old computers hard drive onto my new computer, having two hard drives and also access to my old files. But when I set it up on my new computer, with the two hard drives, it would try to boot up windows 98. But there are corrupted files and files missing on the 98 Machine that are disallowing it from sucessfuly booting. So what I want to be able to do, is clear the operating system off of the old hard drive completely but still have the information. Thanks.
