Is it possible to add in your own folders or files..so that once windows setup is completed and it loads desktop that you could have your folders on the desktop?

loki9, yes. In the .xml used for the installation, include the command

            <FirstLogonCommands>
                <SynchronousCommand wcm:action="add">
                    <Order>1</Order>
                    <Description>Start my batch file.</Description>
                    <CommandLine>CMD /R %systemdrive%\Run1\Run1-W7.bat</CommandLine>
                </SynchronousCommand>
            </FirstLogonCommands>

My batch file goes into W:\sources\$OEM$\$1\Run1 and has this command first to find the install source (CDROM):

For %%i in (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) do if exist %%i:\sources\install.wim set CDROM=%%i:

Place your files/folders in a folder at the root of your install source. I call mine Install.

Enjoy, John.
