Copy from the CD to a local hard drive then change the attributes from
read only to read/write then open it.

Basically Win 98 and WinXP read and write quite compatibly.

Some soft ware, in fact lots of software, cannot handle files written by
new versions of the same software but it is nothing to do with the
operating system.
