Errors such as what?
Jim

Please state your full Windows version (e.g., WinXP SP3) when posting to
this newsgroup.

What errors? How is this related to Windows Update (vs upgrading Windows)?

First of all, we need to know what errors you're getting. When's the last time
you did a clean install, if ever?

If you have an original XP disk or a System Restore disk, I'd back up my data
then do a clean install. Of course if your machine is six years old, you may
want to look at buying a newer one. Computers with more power than you
have now are quite affordable.
