This is probably not an issue with ImageCache, it is more likely an issue with your server and write permissions. Try going to admin/settings/file-system and set /tmp to just tmp, or possibly some other path in your WAMP installation directory.

Confirming this fix. It might have something to do with going from linux system to windows. I moved a site to an offline wamp server, and suddenly got this error.

I'm not sure what ZAMP is, but if you follow the instructions in #1, you should be ok.
