firewall between two hard drives

Jun 4, 2006 2:16PM PDT

I had a network set up between two pc's, I was using one for storage, and also to protect my new machine from virus's. Until the motherboard on the old one finally gave up the ghost, so I have inserted the hard drive from the old machine in the new machine, and was wondering if there was some way to set up a "firewall", or virus program between the two hard drives, as I am still using the old drive for all web activity? I am running XP Pro, on a Dell OptPlex 240.The drive I insterted is "local disk F".
