Anyway here's what I did in case it helps anyone else:
 1.- From the preinstalled Windows, create a set or recovery CDs. This will=

create 6 CDs.
2.- Shut down the computer, remove the hard drive and insert the new hard=

drive.
3.- Start the computer, booting from the first CD.
4.- Use the recovery software to return your hard disk to factory defaults.=

This will erase all current contents ! The whole process lasts one hour and=

a half or so.
5.- That's it. Windows should be new born on your hard disk, and the=20
predesktop also works.
 OK, so now let's install Linux on the first hard disk !!!
 Thanks everybody for the help,
