📄 Description

Added a windows menu to select between a Windows Install disc and the Windows Presinstallation Environment. This was necessary due to some case differences between windows images and PE, namely that in the windows image, the boot directory is "boot" and bcd is "bcd" but in PE, boot is "Boot" and bcd is "BCD" While this doesn't matter in windows, it does in a linux based boot environment and caused a failure.

I tested this on my personal machine.
