Fullu agrees with Br4tt3
Go for iso boot. It will load faster, you vill have one file to handle on the servers and you won't have to have nic drivers in multiple places.
If you happends to have 10 mbit connections you will see a drastic reduction in boot time.

Have you checked that you got the adsi dll files in your PE image and that they are registred?

A little late but i have what i thougth was a complete walkthrough posted on this forum.
I would suspect that the easiest way to fix a shutdown is to use shutdown.exe or psshutdown.exe

Have you added the adsi support files?

The only way i found to do that is to replace winpwshl with something that can run apps minimized.
I Wrote a small vb6 app for it for our needs earlier. Today I launch my VB6 app drectly and execute the needed commands from my app instead

oops. Yes that cleanup list removes way to much. But you can clean parts of it. For example the fonts and the help files. Drivers for modems and so on. I got a 124Mb image with wmi,wsh,ado and vb6 runtime support

The reason for us not to use it is the legal part.
We couldn't get a clear answer if we could use sdi without the complete embedded kit so we used a ordinary ramdrive instead.
Now it's running until we go into vista

\i386
pe.sio

I think it's by design.
Pe doesn't start any listners by default. The same thing applies to smb you can't map a drive on a pe box either

Ximage or imageX as its real name is IS NOT publicly Availible. The only way to get it is from ms so contact your representative about it

I can only confirm that.
About 80 techs here using pe1.6 and intel 10.3 on about 20 000 pc:s

Have you tried with
cmd /C begin.bat.
.bat isn't a true executable format. It needs cmd to handle it

I tried to use a "preloaded" regitry but i never got it stable.
It would work well on one box and fail on another and so on.
In the end i scrubbed that idea amd stripped the installation down instead to improve boot times

If you do use MS ris it's simple
under \remoteinstall\Setup\English\Images\"imagename"\i386, add the iso file and a templates folder
In templates add ntdetect.com,ntldr and startrom.com and a sif file
my sif file looks like this, there shouldn't be any line breaks int the OsLoadoptions line
[setupData]
BootDevice = "ramdisk(0)"
BootPath = "\i386\System32\"
OsLoadOptions = "/noguiboot /fastdetect /minint /rdexportascd /rdpath=%INSTALLPATH%\%MACHINETYPE%\pe.iso
Architecture = "<platform>"
[RemoteInstall]
Repartition = No
[OSChooser]
Description = "PE2005"
Help = "try this"
LaunchFile = "%INSTALLPATH%\%MACHINETYPE%\templates\startrom.com"
ImageType = Flat
Version = "5.2 (0)"

Hi
This is very easy to do.
in \remoteinstall\OSChooser\i386
Rename startrom.com to startrom.old
copy startrom.n12 startrom.com
Restart the ris service
mission Complete

You cant use Integrated security from winpe.
Integrated security means that it should log on with the current user and domain from PE
try with this instead
PROVIDER=SQLOLEDB;DATA SOURCE=XXXXXX;DATABASE=osd;UID=xxxxxxx;PWD=xxxxxx

You can't use PE without a propper license.
You can download pe from the opk web but if you don't have an oem/system builder agrement with ms you can't use it leagally.
The way to get PE is by SA, system builder agreement or partner status.

Tried the docs?
There is a section about reducing the size in the pe2005 docs. I think you will get down to about 90 megs but you will have to re-add your nic driver

If you make one small change it becomes a lot easier.
Always boot PE and then in pe put up one or more hta forms witch asks the questions you needed.
Since you can use vbscript in or from the hta:s you can generate your .bat files and modify the unattended from there.
As a final point you just would execute your newly created bat file from the hta and mission complete

Where I can download WinPE?
in Windows PE
Posted
Pe for XP (PE 1.6) is not a public download due to licencing rules.
Pe 2.0, built from vista is a public download as linked by ubernerd
