NWN Diamond installation is portable so you can put it anywhere, even on a USB key.
The only file that matters from your previous installation is this nwncdkey.ini file. You can Find it at one of the following locations:
[CDKEY] Key1=XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX Key2=XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX Key3=XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX
