Is there a reasonble method of moving Boinc and its projects from C:\\Program Files\\BOINC to D:\\Program Files\\BOINC on a win2k box that does not involve Uninstalling and then reinstalling?

The process is simple. Uninstall Boinc. The Boinc folders with all its projects and preferences will be maintained. Copy/Move the entire Boinc folder to the desired location. Reinstall Boinc pointing it the new location. Boinc should restart exactly where it left off.
