All SBS 2003 Wizards Failing...

I did a fresh install of Windows Small Business Server 2003 and then ALL updates (even the optional ones). I then proceeded to complete domain setup process. NONE of the wizards work at all from the TO DO List. The window open initially but once you click on next on any wizard, the windows simply disappears. There are no error logs to be found about the problem. I have tried this same process on multiple machines and they all fail as well. The only time when everything does work is if I do not download ANY updates at all. Can anyone tell me what to do to get ALL the updates without losing the ability to use the Wizards that are an essential part of SBS2003?
 
Hi,

I don't if this will help or not but when I install SBS I do the following:

1) Install basic SBS install
2) Apply SP2 for Exchange
3) Visit Windows Update and install only the Critical Updates
4) Visit Windows Update and install Optional Updates
5) Run through Wizards

I reboot after every step!

I am also assuming you are installing SBS with the media which already has SP2 applied for Windows 2003.

Thanks.
