it just pops errors back at me. And I tried to update my drivers such as one
for my video card and it wont let me so I cant even hear videos or see
them!!! I cant even install a new program. Any suggestions? Or anyone having
the same problems???? thank you

You could try renaming the SoftwareDistribution in \Windows to something
like SoftwareDistribution.old and trying Windows Update again.
