Dear Niall. I am a big fan of you as many of your articles are real life savers. I am approaching now for a solution for Windows 8.1 custom image deplyment on surface pro 3 . I have an image which is around 10 Gigs and am unable to copy it in USB due to Fat 32 restriction as surface only supports fat32, I dont have an option of using WDS as BootP is not an option in my network. Only way out am thinking is boot using USB and install OS over the network using MDT 2013. am not successful in it,can you guide me in doing this and also any other ways of achieving this.desperately seeking your reply. Regards Chan
