Special Information
Windows Preinstallation Environment (aka Windows PE, WinPE) is a lightweight version of Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows Server 2008 R2 that is used for the deployment of workstations and servers.
It is intended as a 32-bit or 64-bit replacement for MS-DOS during the installation phase of Windows, and can be booted via PXE, CD-ROM, USB flash drive, or hard disk.
Traditionally used by large corporations and OEMs (to preinstall Windows client operating systems to PCs during manufacturing), it is now widely available free of charge via the Windows Automated Installation Kit (WAIK).
WinPE allows you to install any version of windows using a Windows Share (or SAMBA) of your Windows Installation files.
Installation Instructions
In order to start a windows installation you will need to use Windows PE.
To create a WinPE from Windows XP/2003 use WinPE 1.0
To create a WinPE from Windows Vista/2008 use WinPE 2.0
To create a WinPE from Windows 7/2008 R2 use WinPE 3.0
All PE versions are capable of connecting to a network share and start a Windows Installation assuming you have added your hardware NIC drivers.
