Again with the Windows Update problems...
I'm running WinXP Pro, a legit copy, even .
For the past two weeks, it has listed one "critical update"; Nvidia Drivers...old drivers. This update used to be offered to me under the Drivers section, and I had selected to ignore it because I was already running a later release, the WHQL certified 43.05 version, nonetheless. So, is there any way to "reset" Windows Update? It didn't even offer me the MSBlaster fix, I wound up downloading that and installing it myself, manually. Surely there's been releases in the past two weeks...it's actually been a month since I ran the update, just in the past two weeks that I've been actively looking because I thought something was up.

Was there anything you've done (patches applied, software installed) right before you noticed this happening?
Worst case, you could always go to Add/Remove Programs and roll back all of the HotFixes and redownload them - see if anything along the line fixes the issue. Failing that, reapply SP1 and go from there, see if that helps. Absolute worst case - something got seriously hosed, reinstall.

Well, WindowsUpdate has been down (at least from work) nonstop today, so I can't go to check.
The "Trouble Shooter" section of the Windows Update site normally has some pretty good solutions. Have you checked in there to see if there's anything that applies?
