Sorry if this is a little off topic.

Planning on upgrading to a 200meg HD in near future.  Concerned about
migrating BOINC and preserving exisiting projects.  Have SETI and a large
chunk of Climate prediction running 50/50.  Figure I can wait on SETI to
finish up a WU, then just reload on the new HD, but climate predictor has
400 hours done, and 600 hours to go (did I mention it was a large chunk of
data?) and I'd hate to have to start it over.  Any suggestion on a migration
path that would preserve the existing work?

TIA

Just copy all the files to the new disk, and install BOINC over that location, should work fine. As far as I know all the data/results are stored in a file, not the registry or something...
