Windows Vista Keeps Offering Me the Same 27 Updates

No matter how many times I check for updates in Windows Vista (Home Premium)
on a brand new Toshiba laptop, Vista continues to offer me th esame 27
updates available for installation. I always elect to install the updates
and I let the machine reboot like 5-6 times and wait (about an hour) for it
to finish. However, when it's done, it still offers me the same 27 pending
updates. What's going on here?

to install the update(s).
