Default Demo track to test speaker setup?

I've just installed my speakers on my new (MESH) XP Pro PC. Connecting
the 3 stereo jack plugs to the appropriate sockets on the back of the
PC was a bit iffy as the positions didn't correspond to those in the
documentation. But, after fiddling with the Control Panel Sound
settings for a while, on playing my first MP3 I do have sound coming
from all 6 speakers. (Bass in main unit, plus 5 identical speakers for
'centre', front L, front R, rear L, rear R; I gather this is called
'5.1'?).

But now I'd like to check that these are correctly connected. So I
need a demo track. Something that will clearly identify front and
back, left right and centre. Anyone know where I can download one
please?
