 * I’ve installed a first installation of wordpress a week ago, with `$table_prefix
   = '_wp'`.
    Then I found the trick for installing more blog with differente table
   prefixes, but it haven’t worked. It’s because I’ve used the default prefix for
   the first blog? There’s a simple way to change the prefix of the installation
   without losing the database? Or there is another problem?

 * You could create a SQL dump, manually edit the prefix of the tables, then import
   the new modified SQL dump. Then change wp-config.php to use the new table prefix:
   `
   $table_prefix = 'yourNewPrefex_';`
