Install NIC driver, chips driver and other low level drivers on PC-1.

Upload image from PC-1 to CCBoot server.
Diskless boot PC-1 with super client and install all the other drivers and various softwares you need on it, then shut down PC-1.
Try to diskless boot all the client PCs with the image you have uploaded from PC-1. If all client PCs can boot successfully, please go to Step 13, if one client (suppose PC-2) can not boot successfully, please go to Step 7.
Boot PC-2 with HDD and install the same Windows edition on it.
Install NIC driver on PC-2.
