I am unable to intall any new XP updates - my computer will download them
with no problem but hangs for about 10-15 mins when it tries to install
them, then a window pops up saying that they are not XP certified and will
not install - If anyone can help me with some ideas I would give them a big
hug and kiss, or if that scrares them, a hearty handshake.

thanks
