> When a new base image is captured, the passwords for the root and Administrator accounts are set before the security policy which sets the password requirements is is applied.  The capture will fail if the password does not meet the default Windows password requirements.  The password policies should be applied before attempting to set the passwords.
> The really only affects the first revision of new base images being captured because existing images that have gone through the entire capture process already have the password policies applied.
