RE: Pre-installed Win7 x64 boot to ramdisk via iPXE
If you want to boot a .wim file, then you're stuck with what will work in a Windows PE environment. If WinPE can't run the software you want it to, then your only choice is to use either iSCSI or AoE on a fully installed system (that is, install Windows to an iSCSI/AoE volume). Be aware that Windows only supports iSCSI out of the box. For AoE you'll need a customized installation.

Are you absolutely sure that you can't get DirectX to work in Windows PE? I would think it could work, but you'll probably have to do a lot of manual work.
