If I disable register_globals on my already established CPG database, should I expect any other problems?  I assume a backup prior to changing this setting is recommended.

No backup needed for this operation. However it won't hurt to perform frequent backups anyway.

Coppermine doesn't need register_globals, it operates totally independantly of that toggle. Therefor, there will we absolutely zero impact on coppermine if you turn register_globals off. It's like swallowing a mouthfull of water when you're swimming in the ocean: absolutely no impact on the ocean. Except if you are Chuck Norris ;D
