Although the page clearly states

Changing this location after the site has been in use will cause problems so only change this setting on an existing site if you know what you are doing.

Is there any way I can change the path?
Earlier my site was on root and now I have changed it to /drupal however all the posts still point to the files under root (ie /files/active/....) and all the new uploaded are stored in /drupal/files/active/.....
Is there any way I can fix this problem. Other than creating the site all over again?

Why not create a link?

ln -s /files/ /drupal/files/

And make sure that if you're using Apache you also have follow sym links turned on for that directory.
