If you go to the windowsupdate.microsoft.com and try to run a manual update, does it give you any errors?

Some time ago Microsoft added a 'genuine advantage' check, to verify that people had an original copy of XP. Does your PC pass this test if you try a manual update?
Another thing: Make sure that you have sufficient free spac eon your C: drive. Many updates will fail without error if you are low on drivespace.
