After downloading and installing high priority updates from windows update
service recently, I find that I cannot view or install software optional or
hardware optional updates. Choices in left margin of MS site Windows Update
screen indicate that there are 8 software and 5 hardware updates available
but when I click on either of these selections nothing happens (no screen
update, no errors shown).

OS is XP Media Center Edition, SP#2, recently reinstalled after a hard disk
failure.
