I have reinstalled XP on my HP Pavillion. I cannot get
Windows automatic updates to work. I start setting it up
and it hangs at registering 100% and the I get no where.
Is there something I can do elsewhere (eg the registry)
to make it think this is a clean install and it will owrk?

Sorry but that did not do it. I even tried deleting Update from the registry
and that didn't do it. I have a feeling iti s bacause I had updates Windows
before it was restored and it's confused on something. Nay ohter ideas?
