Whenever I try to update windows I relieve the message that the
download failed. There are no error codes. We have several identical
machines running WINXP PRO and only one has this problem. Any
suggestions?
 
Interesting that you didn't get an error code. I experience several
consecutive download failures. I ran chkdsk from the Safe mode command line
that apparently missed a couple of bad sectors. After downloads failed
again, I ran chkdsk c: /r in Windows Safe mode that cleaned it up. I
immediately downloaded the latest updates and they installed successfully.
