You cannot copy the files in the compressed state on the Windows 98 computer, since it does not support compression.
Key Takeaway: Windows 98 uses FAT2 partitions and Windows XP uses NTFS partitions. Data compression is only supported on NTFS volumes. Hence, you may need to arrange for a different hard drive with more capacity if you intend to use a Windows 98 computer or install Windows XP if you want the data to be in the compressed state.
