Is it possible to load Performance Test along with BurninTest through a WinPE boot CD? We would not perform the full suite of performance tests through WinPE, we'd only use the Advanced Network Test to test/verify network throughput between the WinPE booted system and a second test PC. This would verify the port speed and network cabling between the two.

BurnInTest has a network test built into it. And this is certainly enough for testing cabling.

We haven't tested WinPE with PerformanceTest. I would imagine there would be issues as getting the best performance from a system depends on having all the right device drivers. Which will often not be there with WinPE.
