ISCSI Boot Windows with CCBoot in a Russian Cyber Cafe

My acquaintance with PXE boot Windows software - CCBoot, began in May 2009, when for unknown reasons have become massively fail drives on client computers, and we began to look for alternatives to renounce their use altogether. Pretty quickly I found a Google reference to www.ccboot.com tried in the laboratory test version, and then decided to move it.

The program is good, but the lack of detailed How-to difficult to implement for beginners. Occasionally there are situations when only work experience is help and "scientific method spear".

Here's the original email in Russia.
