startup windows in safe mode and select start->run and type in %windir% and press enter.
Rename the "SoftwareDistribution" folder to something else like "SoftwareDistribution.old".
restart the computer and run the windows updates.
(the software distribution folder is where downloaded windows updates go. if it gets corrupted windows updates fail. If the folder is missing, windows recreates it and downloads updates from the beginning)
another thing to try is to fix cryptographic services. create a file in notepad and copy and paste the following into it. afterwards, rename it fix.bat (make sure it doesn't have a .txt extension) and run it.
here is the file contents, Hope this helps:

you wouldn't believe how long it took me to fix this the first time I saw it!

There are several failures that usually account for windows XP updates failing. If you are able to access the website, are not blocking scripts, and having no firewall or virus issues then the most common causes are
Incorrect clock settings (which can be more indicticive of a bad bios battery)
cryptographic services failure (which also affects access to HTTPS sites)
and corrupt downloads (which is usually the case when the pc is restarted in the middle of a download or installation. The fixes for the last two scenarios are discussed.
