    Hi all,

    2 updates keep failing:
    Microsoft.NET Framework Sevice pack1
    Internet Explorer 8 for windows vista.

    And now I get a message saying that it can't contact windows update, so i do it manually, the install starts then seems to stick and the only way I can get out of the install screen is to shut down :mad:

    Any ideas for a fix, I'm also not too hot on computers so an idiots guide would be great :eek:

    TIA

    Papa G
