WinPE

DS uses WIN PE 2.x not 3.0, both 64-bit and 32-bit.    Please don't forget to mark this as a solution.

this isn't a solution

 the solution that they say it supports windows 7 , but winpe 3,0 is part of windows 7 .. so the answer is that they do not support it yet

CONFUSED?

Yes you can deploy Windows 7 32-bit / 64-bit with DS.  This as nothing to do with WINPE, PE is used to pre-boot the machin and is used as a conduit to ghost image the machine.  Are your saying that runing ghost in WINPE 3.0 has more ability / speed?

Currently DS doesn't support

Currently DS (6.9 SP3) doesn't support WinPE 3.0. However WinPE 2.1 can be used to deploy both Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2 as scripted installs. For Win 7 it is both 32 and 64 bit and obviously for win 2008 R2 ... 64 bit :)

Havent got a clue about the Ghost tools. But the simple answer to your question is No.

Just my 2 cents.
