Command line backup without boot disk

Hello,

 

I am using a remote data management program to store images of various devices.

 

In order for this to work I need to be able to run a command line from windows which will trigger a backup of a drive.

I can see how to make a boot disk for this but I need to be able to do this remotely on a schedule so I dont want someone to have to go and put a floppy in the drive every time I backup.

 

I am assuming ghost has to restart to perform the backup. In this case I need a batch file to restart the PC, perform the backup, and kick back into windows all without user intervention. Does anyone know how to do this?

 

Thanks
