We are seeing a problem where the Windows 7 SP1 OSD wrongly exits to the Ctl-Alt-Del screen: This problem is occuring with about %25 of our Newly Imaged PCs during the Software Updates step of the Task Sequence (of which there is about 9 outstanding updates), the PCs are rebooted as 4 of these updates finish with COMPLETE_SOFT_REBOOT_NEEDED.
After the Software Updates Reboot the following errors are found:
SMSTS.log reports:
Failed to set log directory. Some execution history may be lost. The system cannot find the file specified. (Error: 80070002; Source: Windows)
UpdatesDeployment.log reports:

I have checked the logs based on other forum suggestions I can say the following:
-Network adapter is getting valid address;
-I do not have a step for "Install Roles and Features";
-I can apply registry changes for each machine to take them out of Provisioning mode, and after that I dont have any problems - this is far from the solution that I hope for.
