If you have Windows NT you may use Client Diskette Builder. It requires WIndows CD-ROM and will copy client files to local drive. Then you may create variety of bootable diskettes which will allow you to boot with DHCP or static IP address, login toNT Domain, and mount server's shares. After boot you will have DOS prompt and you can start programs from that remote drives.

Good luck.
