Not clear what you mean by "some files may damage it".
Even if this were the case, then copying them via CD as opposed to by a network would have the same effect.
Still...
Assuming the old PC is capable, you could copy the files to a pen drive (also called a flash drive). It would set you back a few quid, but they always come in useful.
