How to reset to default file locations for User Folders in Vista?

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone knew how to set file locations for Documents, Pictures, Videos etc. back to default location. Basically, how do I restore my User Folders to its default locations?

I had changed location of these folders to another seperate physical drive. Well that drive stopped working this morning, and I was not able to change the folder location because of the corrupt/failed drive. Now when I click on documents, nothing happens. When I try to check properties of those folders, there is not information available. How do I go about restoring the default file locations for these so that I restore my data into them? Any help on this is greatly appreciated.
 
Which version of Windows is it? If it is Windows XP or Vista then you can download TweakXP or Tweak Vista to reset the file location in registry to default.
 
Thanks for the reply. This is on Vista Ultimate 32bit. I'll give that program a try when I get home in the morning, thanks.
