Windows update won't update.

[Eric Hunter22]

Hi!

I've built my first PC and I am now proud to say that it is up and running. There is however a problem.

Windows update won't install any updates, it just keeps looking for updates and has been for the last 5 hours despite numerous reboots.

Any ideas?
