I use the updated mirosoft site all the time but in the last 4 or 5 days, since I had to do a reinstall of win xp, I go through the update process, which can take ages, only to be told that some updates have failed. I need help fast or the computer goes out the window.

Method 1: reset the Windows Update components.

This tool automates the most common fixes problems with the Windows Update site.

Note this fix it Solution has two modes by default and aggressive.

You must run the fix it solution in default mode and determine if it solves your problem with Windows Update before running it in aggressive mode.

The historical section Update http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com> will be white/empty after you run the Fix It in AGGRESSIVE mode.

This will not effect either by using the Windows Update Web site or via automatic updates update.
