Non-admin notification shouldn't affect delayed update installation. In fact,
we like to keep that disabled as I've found that if a non-admin can see the
notification, they can also hide the updates by unchecking the boxes next to
them.
Can you list out which options you've set in the policy? I *think* what you
said is that you have "Reschedule automatic updates..." enabled, with a wait
time of 1. This works in conjunction with "configure automatic updates"
enabled set to 4, with a scheduled installation time.
If that is all set correctly, confirm that the workstations are getting the
policy applied successfully. You might need to look at workstation event logs,
and/or run GPResult.

I have a WSUS 3.0 SP1 machine under Windows 2003 AD that isn't forcing delayed
updates. I just noticed that the GPO had been set not to alert non admins of
pending updates, but it was set to start install 1 minute after start if
delayed?
What am I missing?
Thanks!
