Windows Update

Hi all,

Havin trouble with my windows updates, tried to do it manually and automatically, neither worked. what happens is everything is downloaded fine but for some unknown reason the installer can't install them.

This all came about after i had done a re-install of the OS (Windows XP MCE). I also tried to install IE7 but i get a message saying that IE7 is not able to run on my OS.....

Thanks for any help.

Im Running Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005. Should be alright for updates. The problem is that the Updates are been downloaded correctly but the install manager won't install them for some reason.
