KB940510 - Checks for Counterfeit Vista install
KB955839
- Is for Windows Server 2008 Is a clock adjustment and has been reported as causing major startup problems ie KB955839 will not install.

As for the others

KB957388 - Compatibility update, Install




Optional, only if you have these problems


KB957321 - Non essential, only if you are having problems. An update rollup is available for the Microsoft Windows Imaging Component (WIC) in Windows Vista or in Windows Server 2008. This update rollup resolves the problems that are documented in the following articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

KB959108 Some of the data that is collected in the Reliability and Performance section of Computer Management in your system is automatically reported upstream to the MS servers. They use that to determine possible bugs in Vista. The update you refer to allows to stop this type of reporting.

KB959130 Install this update to resolve an issue with the default Web browser setting when you click "Browse the Internet Now" in Network and Sharing Center.
