Thanks for the reply and links. I have been trying everything that has been
recommended but no good has come what-so-ever. I can not remove updates
manually and running the removal tool results in an error window that asks
to send report to Microsoft which I select not. It seems I have run into a
brick wall and finding no solution. Unless I can find out how to get past
these errors or there are any other ideas I most likely will have to do a
repair install of WinXP.

Thanks PA Bear.

Dave.
