83 Updates downloaded, 83 failed to install

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

Hi,
I did a repair installation of XP Home using a slipstreamed disk with SP2 on it. The first time I went to Windows Update I had to install the Windows Installer 3v2. I finally got this done by changing permissions in the registry per a MS bulletin. When I went back to Windows Update 83 Updates were downloaded and all failed to install. The failures to install do not appear in the Update History. The other entry in the history is the failure to install the Windows Installer.

I am now at a loss as to how to get the 83 updates installed.
Thank you so very much if some can help me.

G. T.
