Cannot Download Updates

[captain crash]

Help!

Everytime I try to download and install critical updates
from the windows update page, i get the following message:

Windows Updates Failed

The following items failed to install. To try installing
them again, click Review and install updates, and then
click Install Now again.

I currently have about 40 updates waiting for me (new PC)
including SP1 but I cannot seem to download and install
successfully.

Please help!

Many thanks

Hello!

Go to Start/Run and type in: regsvr32 wintrust.dll. If
that doesn't help: Go to Start/Run and type in CMD. At the
command prompt, type the following commands, pressing ENTER
after each line:

net stop cryptsvc
ren %systemroot%\system32\catroot2 oldcatroot2
net start cryptsvc

Then try the install again.
