I have closed it down, made it sleep, made it hibernate .. with no luck .. how do i remove them or see what they are or even get them to install ! TIA .. ROB

Which updates?

they will have a number starting with the letters KB, often if an update gets stuck the easiest solution is to download them from Microsoft download site and install them manually.

I have the same problem, I have been trying to install KB2416473 and KB951847 for over a month but they wont install

A few of the Windows 7 updates for 64 bit versions have been coming down corrupted . If you hide the particular ones that are faulty until Microsoft has a chance to repaIr them you will be ok . The last one I have come across is KB974431 and can cause you grief.This problem is mainly with the 64 bit OS.

Further to my pervious post it has been highly recommened by Microsoft that you dont try to manually install them until they are repaired
