Dart 7 Image Network Support Broken When Imported into SCCM 2012

Question

Hi guys, I've been trying to get Dart integrated into my Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 Task Sequences recently. Running SCCM 2012 SP1 CU3.
Until today I was able to PXE-boot DaRT7 and DaRT8 images, however the DaRT 7 images are now failing to boot - despite being recreated in
exactly the same way.
I understand that when SCCM imports a boot image the winpeshl.ini is overwritten - originally the DaRT7 images have the following winpeshl.ini entries:
    [LaunchApps]
    %windir%\system32\netstart.exe,-prompt
    %SYSTEMDRIVE%\sources\recovery\recenv.exe
After import to SCCM this looks like:
    [LaunchApps]
    %SYSTEMDRIVE%\sms\bin\x64\TsBootShell.exe
I dont understand how the DaRT 7 images ever worked, as the first command from those that are stripped out (%windir%\system32\netstart.exe,-prompt) is what would initiate the TCP/IP stack.
Of course, no network = no TS shell, so thre client reboots. If I press F8, load a command shell and manually run %windir%\system32\netstart.exe and then run %windir%\system32\winpeshl.exe the TS shell loads.
Any ideas how I can fix this - essentially I just need the DaRT7 image to bring up the network automatically.
Thanks,
Chris

Thought I would add that the following unattend.xml has been tested in the root of the image without success:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<unattend xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:unattend">

Thanks again.
