I finally got Wamp running as I want and now I need to move it to another hard drive. Is there an easier way than deleting the current copy and reinstalling it?

I saved my wamp folder and then reinstalled the WampServer and then just saved the wamp folder's contents (folders within) to the new folders on the new hard drive. That helped me so I didn't have to redo all of my tables and files.

It depends on waht you want to do..
Do you want to launch wamp from another drive or to set your data folder on another drive ?
You can do the second one by modifying a line in wampmanager.conf or scripts/config.inc.php
When moving a folder, don't forget to uninstall services (wampapache and wampmysqld) using the batch file adn then reinstall them from wamp menu after moving.
You should use my patch to do this because you must modify many conf files and it does it for you automatically.
