Hi All,

I have a Windows 7 computer which is currently unable to install updates. I can instruct the computer (through Control Panel > Windows Updates) to install updates, at which point the green progress bar commences and I see 'Downloading updates' displayed.However after a time the progress bar simply stops and I am once more presented with the original 'updates available' screen and the button to 'install updates'.

I have left the computer for up to 6 hours, and after this time I was returned to the original 'install updates' screen. I have scanned for viruses (and found none), furthermore there is an active internet connection (as I am able to browse the web).

Any help here will be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Davo
