Could you post the Error Code? If you go to Windows/Microsoft Update, click
on "Review you update history" and click on the Failed Icon you should be
able to get the failed error code. I would also suggest you post this
information along with what updates cannot be installed to the Windows
Update newsgroup for better assistance. The news group is located here if
you are using a newsreader:

If you are using the Microsoft News Web reader the newsgroup can be found
