Where Are Sound Schemes Stored?

Had a laptop crash and have restored most everything after the rebuild. I
had a sound scheme that I had tweaked over the past couple of years, and I'd
really like to recover it rather than starting from scratch again.

I have a full backup of my system, and somewhere in there is that old sound
scheme. All of the folders with the various sounds are back on the drive, so
all I need is to get that scheme from the backup and restore it.

Any ideas where XP stores the sound schemes?

Thanks,
John

It is referenced in the registry here
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Names

The actual files are here
C:\Windows\Media

Thanks WB. My "actual files" are scattered all over my drive in various
folders, so reconstructing the scheme would have taken a while. I exported
the keys from the old hive and imported them into the new one. Ah yes, the
world is right again!
