KB82130 Failed to install Error message 0x800foda

I already have WGA installed, however, when I tried to do updates it
said I had to DL and Install. I DL it but it failed to install 6 times.
At this point I cannot even check updates without Installing WGA any
suggestions or insights as to what I could try next I am using XP Pro.
I am using a fairly new Dell that had Vista on it, which I removed and
installed Clean a New XP. Recently I DL Service Pack 3 which I have
also removed due to issues with it. Now I can't do any updates at all .
