    I think you must change all your database tables name from exp_ to abc_

    then change :

    $db['expressionengine']['dbprefix'] = "exp_";        To           $db['expressionengine']['dbprefix'] = "abc_";
    $db['expressionengine']['swap_pre'] = "exp_";        To           $db['expressionengine']['swap_pre'] = "abc_";

    in /system/expressionengine/config/database.php

    but first get backup your files and database
