As a matter of fact, you *can* make a simple move in many
cases. If all the tables were created (or converted to) MyISAM
in v. 3.23, there shouldn't be many problems. Watch out for
errors in database and tables names, tho' -- sometimes MySQL
gets confused after such a move because WIN does not distinguish
between lower and upper case.
