Default Failed Updates

Ok I usually have no problems installing updates. But today for some reason
the 4 IMPORTANT Updates fail to install.
I do not get a clear error msg. And they do not how as installed so they
can't be uninstalled. These all seem to be Office 2007
related. KB975960, 974561, 973704, & 973593. They failed this morning
despite rebooting. And then I was prompted again this afternoon.
They failed again. Anyone have any ideas. Is there a bug in the updates? I
tried w/NAV off as well.
PC is a Vitsa32 Bus. Ed machine w/Office 2k7.

TIA for any help.

No help here--but, just finished downloading and installing those updates
without incident. Problem is not with the updates but must lie on your side
of the fence.

Sorry, been away for a few days. I don't know why, but that seemed to work.
Thanks
