I fully agree with Bald Eagle. It appears to me that you have /copied/ 
your files/program to a new HD and the registry settings may be wrong. 
Better is to fully /install/ POV-Ray again on the new drive to get the 
correct connections of the standard include files at least. It is then a 
simple matter to change your povray.ini file in particular.

I did this exercise recently and everything worked immediatly without a 
glitch.
