I appreciate the suggestions to try. I tried all of these steps, but unfortunately the issue still persists.

I've had updating the BIOS in the back of my mind, so I went ahead and did that and reset to factory default, but still no luck. There are no options in this machine's BIOS to to switch between AHCI and IDE. Per HP documentation it can only be done via the HP replicated setup linux based utility. I can see in device manager that is is currently set to AHCI.

Another thing to note is that I can do a clean install of 20H2 on this machine and sysprep it without any issues. I can sysprep the 1703 image on this machine without any issues. The issue only occurs upon the first boot after updating 1703 to 20H2 and running sysprep

It just so happens I do have a 1903 ISO and that was going to be my next step... try 1903 as an intermediate update
