Directory Assistance

Just upgraded to X2, and had computer failure before I got X2 installed. Ended up having to reinstall windows7 pro. I can't remember how I had my directories set up in X1. Any suggestions for the path for VST's (i.e. EZDrummer, and Amplitube )?? Would like a good straight path on this setup.
Thanks

    Typically VST paths are set to a couple of places by default in SONAR on first startup.  You can customize these paths and tell SONAR to look in different places on your computer by following these steps:
     
    To manually add this/these plugin’s file path to SONAR X2:
      Navigate to Utilities|Cakewalk Plug-in Manager
      Highlight the [name of plugin] category in the Plug-in Categories column.
    Do your plugins show up here? If not,
      Select [Options]
      Within the next window select [Add...]
      Browse to the folder location of the plugin on your computer.
    ***If you cannot find the plugins on your computer under the name of the plugin, then please try looking for a folder named after the manufacturer (in your case, Toontrack for EZDrummer, and IK Multimedia for Amplitube) of the plugin***
      I would suggest looking in Program Files and Program Files (x86) firstHighlight the folder containing the .dll plugin file and select [Ok] and then [Ok] again.
      Lastly, select Scan VST Plug-ins
    Hopefully this helps!
