I do the same thing here, although I use Daemon Tools (with a
driveletter) instead of a folder. I've never had the problem. I use
Win2k3 Standard Ed.
Did you check/change both places in the registry that handles this? Ie
the source paths in both
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup] and
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion]?
