Installing Windows with Recent Updates?

MoJo asks: "As a computer technician, I have to re-install Windows often. It takes three attempts to complete Windows Update (get latest update software, validate Windows, download updates). It seems like all this clicking could be scripted somehow, but I can find no-one who has found a way of reducing the whole painful affair to just one or two clicks." Is there a way to build a Windows installation CD that includes the most recent set of updates?

Great... and then you're stuck with the .NET Framework^WDRM^Wspyware^Wkludgeware on your system.

I pity those serviced by this computer technician

Any "computer technician" who doesn't know about slipstreaming or any of Microsoft's other Windows deployment methods probably isn't any more qualified than a random computer enthusiast. As its been posted here, there are also several other third party alternatives found with a simply phrased google search. Additionally, if you know what you're doing, you shouldn't have to be re-installing Windows on a regular basis. The more knowledge and experience you have, the more you'll be able to fix the problem, rather than dicking around or giving up and re-installing.

Google is your friend

Fingers broken? Why not Google the answer instead of subjecting yourself to ridicule on Slashdot?
