PXE booting using tftpd32 problem

Hello

I'm trying to boot & install windows 7 64bit on a pc that has no optical drive, got no 4gb usb stick either so i've been trying the tftpd method mentioned
in devshed titled Network-Booting-via-PXE-the-Basics (won't let me post url)

Everything is good till the last part.

I used my own iso image of win7
when i get into pxe options asks me if i want standard boot or win70os bootdisk
after i choose win7os i get "could not find ramdisk image: Windows

i've put the win7 iso named Windows 7 Ultimate (64 Bit).iso on Boot folder and the config on "default" file are:
DEFAULT menu.c32

TIMEOUT 100

ALLOWOPTIONS 0

PROMPT 0

MENU TITLE PXE Boot Menu

LABEL Win7OS

MENU LABEL ^Win7OS BootDisk

kernel memdisk

append initrd=Windows 7 Ultimate (64 Bit).iso

LABEL StandardBoot

MENU LABEL ^Standard Boot

LOCALBOOT 0

i figure the labels are wrong but didn't think it mattered when i set them since it seems to be reading the iso where append initrd is correct? what do i need to change so it reads the iso?

Anyone can enlighten me with correct options?

once upon a time, and I tried it with Windows XP, the only thing I remember that it is not so simple, insert XP on a USB drive and install. Your process and procedure that I think is totally wrong. there is no definite procedure for how to do it and can not be copied to the ISO file and install win 7.
