  • Backlog set to Yes

a few options to achieve this:

  1. boot a WINPE instance which in turn starts the normal windows explorer, this is probably the safest way.
  2. boot a floppy disk (using memdisk) which loads network, map network shares and starts the unattended setup - this works well for winXP, not sure if it still works on newer versions of windows.
