I am very new to this so pardon my ignorance. I just stumbled upon EasyBoot today.
I have two WinPE.iso for 32-Bit and 64-Bit. I would like to use EasyBoot to create a menu at startup to select boot to either ISO.
Can someone write out some steps for me or point me to a guide I can use? Thanks!

Welcome to this forum @j0nathanr0y

How to create menu system is excellent described by @AltairAC in the pinned topic: EasyBoot - The "missing" manual - READ HERE
Thanks again @ AltairAC 
Note: how to create "Main menu" and menu system is fully described in Post nr;4 in topic
Note: some menu commands has been changed for the last version of Easyboot (better support).
But the "basic" stuff how to create menu etcetera is basically the same.
However you need some info where to put ISO-files and what menu command to use in EasyBoot menu
Do it this way:
1. Copy your two WinPE.ISO-files to folder ezboot (names are not case sensitiv)
2. Create two menus in Easyboot (read in @AltairAC topic how its done)
3. Use menu command: run winpe32.iso (or whatever you name ISO-file)
4. And for the other ISO: run winpe64.iso (or whatever you name ISO-file)
5. Create ISO in EasyBoot (you don't need to check anything in "Option" in the "Make ISO"-window
Note: Above showed menu commands can only be used from EasyBoot_v6 and later.
Optional: You can create bootable USB drive (typically USB-stick) and launch ISO-files from there as well - isn't it wonderful?

Thanks for the info! I've got my menu working with the 32-Bit, still messing with the 64-Bit.
Do you have another link for making a bootable USB?

Well, he, he I sure have
If you rise your eyes to the top in EasyBoot forum and look in "PINNED" topics you find: EasyBoot 6.5 tips for creating bootable USB disk - link HERE
It's very easy to "write" your EasyBoot-build to USB drive and make it bootable.
Note: EasyBoot (actually UltraIso) wipes out every partition on your USB drive - but I'm sure you can accept that as an normal procedure 
Another way is to use my scripts; "easyboot-grub-iso.script" or "easyboot-usb_v2.script" that are able to make USB drive bootable.
Note1: especially "easyboot-grub-iso.script" can directly move your EasyBoot-build to USB drive.
Note2: Both scripts are using grldr (grub) to make USB drive bootable and do not wipe out second partition (can be the case to have in USB harddisk drive).
You can read how scripts are working in post nr;3 HERE
And where are my scripts?
Low your eyes and you find download-link in every post I write in this forum.
Make sure to carefully read "READ_ME.html" inside folder balder

Thanks again for the info. You write very well detailed responses! I love it!
When I click on the Burn "Write USB Disk..." button I get an error:
Wrong parameter: 'writeusb'
Any clue what that means? I have UltraIso installed.

Do you have UltraIso_V9.5 installed - if not - it won't work 
Please confirm what version of UltraIso you have installed 
Launch UltraIso and push >>Help>>chose "About" to confirm what vesrion you are running
Note: I run UltraIso_v-9.5.o.2800

I too have UltraIso_v-9.5.o.2800
Do I need to configure anything to make the two programs talk? When I click on "Write USB Disk..." how do I know it opening UltraISO correctly?

As far as I know it shouldn't be needed 
However, test reinstalling EasyBoot (overwriting existing core-files in same EasyBoot-folder)
And do the same procedure to UltraIso
If still not working - use my script "easyboot-grub-iso.script" and push on the button; "Make USB bootable and transfer ISO-build to USB" in "USB-Section"
Attention! You also have a red arrow that clearly points to this button including description what the use is with this button
Note: Script automatically detects what version of EasyBoot you are running - if something is wrong with your install, script starting to complain in several ways - if so - close script, do new download of EasyBoot-setup-file and install EasyBoot again!
EDIT: You can also launch UltraIso and chose>>Bootable>>Write Disk Image...
