Trouble Shutting Down

On my windows xp laptop, I`m experiencing trouble sutting down, I
tried to shutdown and it started installing an update, which I think
is normal, BUT it said on the screen installing update 1 of 1, then
went to saving your settings, then went back to installing update 1
of 1 again and continued that several times + I even had trouble with
it hanging on shutdown yesterday.Can anyone tell me something that
would help, and it would be appreciated.

Thank You
James
