Disable Device is persisted, but where?

Hi,
On Vista, if I go to Device Manager and disable a device, then reboot, the device is _still_ disabled. My question is where is this config change persisted? (e.g. in the registry or FileSystem)
I guess it will initially write the change to the volatile area in the registry CurrentControlSet\Enum\..., but it does not appear to write the change to the related keys under the hardware profile area of the registry. I therefore don't understand how it can persist across a reboot?
