I reinstalled XP with Service pack 2, two weeks ago. Now 70 (more or less)
Updates download, but won't install. Each time I start it up, I have to go
through the download/ install operation, but they don't install. This is a
6
year old HP Pavilion. Updates worked fine prior to the reinstall. I've
read
the troubleshooting more than once, but can't solve it.
