Win XP Pro, Auto Updates Not Installed

My son upgraded me from Win XP to XP Pro and now I keep getting an Automatic

have not been installed. Any thoughts as to why they will not install? ~ Pat

Updates are not installed successfully from Windows Update, from Microsoft
Update, or by using Automatic Updates after you repair a Windows XP
installation:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943144

NB: Also applies to clean installs, upgrade installs, and Recovery installs.

PS: I'd install SP3 first, then see what other updates might be needed.

See if the information in this article helps. Note: While the title of the
article only mentions repair installation, it's been reported in these
newsgroups that the suggested fix may help when the issue occurs under other
circumstances.
