More info please....

What patches did you install? What SP were you running before hand? What were the patches for?

Are the PC taking a long time to restart the first time after the update only or are have you done more than one restart?
After some Windows updates the PCs need to restart and then the update sets up the system correctly, so the first restart after the update can take a lot of time.

From your question it isn't clear if the PCs always take a long time to boot or if that happens only the first time after the update.
