There are lots of options!
One: Use a ZipDisk (and drive).
That is one of the oldest ways to transfer things for currently working equipment.
It is a little slow and pretty small...

If the old OS is Win98SE or newer, you might get a "flash drive" working
on the old computer. AKA: USB Key (and other names.)
Along the same lines, a USB HD might be "just the thing"...

Summary, Any type of removable media that works on the old computer
will likely also work on the new one... The question then becomes what
amount of info needs to be moved, and how much capacity do you need...

Ask local friends if they have any of the above, and if you can borrow it.
