Have an interesting head scratch issue occurring. I have been successful in having my build update to my Update server. All the assigned updates install during the build process. I added a restart task after the Windows Update Task in in the sequence to finalize the updates. After the restart, I can verify that the updates have installed by checking the Add/Remove programs list. The system build follows this just fine and once the system restarts, the task sequence proceeds as normal. The oddness then begins - sysprep runs as normal, the wim is captured as normal. The new image is added to the operating systems in the workbench, the install task sequence is updated with the new OS source (newly captured wim). These all proceed as normal, but once I log into the system for the first time after the image is applied, there are no updates! None, nada, zip. The installation source files for the updates are gone as well (c:\windows\$uninstall$). I am guessing that the sysprep configuration settings that are being specified by the build sequence scripts is causing this, but for the life of me, I cannot find where this might be occurring.

Anyone else see this happen before?

Any assistance would be welcome.
