Can't install any windows xp updates

It downloads over 70 updates, but when I try to install them, it tries and
then just says they can't be installed.

Crystal Ball© sez:

Updates are not installed successfully from Windows Update, from Microsoft
Update, or by using Automatic Updates after you repair a Windows XP

I have the same problem and so far haven't been able to get it fixed.
