There are three installation methods: manual, default and automated.
For automated installation advanced knowledge is necessary. You must have available aid from Microsoft or a partner of Microsoft company.
For the lab and to develop this post chose default method. You don't need to be an expert in the area of information technology. But need to have knowledge beyond the basics, layout and have an entrepreneurial spirit. Technical information about this method can be obtained at:
Upgrading to Windows 7 with a standard image: Overview .

"The standard image method is for businesses that have a team generalist information technology (it) and that often use partners to help with technology adoption. Use this method if your business has 100–200 client computers with a small network, possibly in multiple locations. The main difference between this method and the manual installation is that you don't need to manually install all applications and define all settings on each computer. "

I started this process automation in the installation to more than eight years. The first tool used was the company Symantec GHOST,. Have the system until today. For the business or corporate environment, even for hardware maintenance is necessary to develop efficient methods to mitigate risk and ensure the TCO.
"Microsoft ® has a variety of tools and resources to help you update your company's computers to the Windows ® 7 operating system, whether they are running Windows Vista ® or Windows XP."

In addition, Microsoft products or processes for automation and installation of systems used Symantec Corporate solutions and iVirtua.
The readings of the sites listed in this post will bring the reader a good technical knowledge regarding the standard installation process.
For greater understanding of the subject, I suggest reading the links presented in this POST and further research. Search manufacturer Web site always. Then search for other sources.
On the Microsoft Web site is available for download the manual with more information. Access the link http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=162737.
Continuing research on the subject I found the site:

"The Windows Setup program supports customizing and installing a custom image, which is a snapshot of a computer configured with applications, device drivers, settings, and so on."

With the information obtained, started work installing Microsoft Windows 7 Professional on a workstation and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 system into another. Both operating systems updated via Microsoft Windows Update. Could use Microsoft Virtual PC or Virtual Box, but I preferred to this real laboratory use two machines. Who then will be put into production, to distribution of the image created on other machines.

"Creating the custom image for the standard image method is an online process, which means that you install Windows 7 on a reference computer; customizes how prompted by Setup applications, device drivers, and updates, and then capture an image. After capturing the installation image, you can deploy it in your client computers. In addition, you can maintain images offline, which allows you to update images with new operating system updates and device drivers, as they become available, without having to install them first. "
