Office 2003 update Failure

I have automatically downloaded the latest four Office 2003 updates. There
are four that have failed. I have installed the latest update install
program as suggested when a failure occurs without helping. Upon shutdown,
the system tries to install each update with all failing. Does anyone have
an idea? I have a valid XP program.
