Microsoft Updates will not install

I have windows XP Pro - and I all of the security updates plus windows
explorer 7 will download (i have also downloaded manually) but will not
install. I get a message saying "insufficient system resources exist to
complete the requested service". And i dont know if it is related but I try
to add my camcorder to download video and my device manager through my
firewire it says the same thing when I try to install it. What gives? Any
suggestions?

I have done scannow and such - still to no avail...

Have you checked the "taskmanager" to find out what program/s are eating up
all your system resources?

Have you checked for spyware/viruses etc?

What are the specs of the system you are using, such as "ram" etc.
