From this site it shows the location as C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes

From what I read I think you are looking for the Luna Theme

Not sure if it will help but this site has a Restore Luna Theme file (half way down the page)

Are you sure that it hasn't just been configured with themes disabled to optimize performance?

Try this.. Start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services, find the Themes service and right click, click Properties. Change startup type to Automatic and click Start if necessary.
