I'm no expert. But do they appear in your "Add / Remove" programs? This is
the place that shows if they have successfully downloaded and installed. The
downloads can be found somewhere on your harddisk and double clicking or
right clicking to them will install to. Also, if the new ms installer was
part of your download, this may be causing the other downloads to stall. I
think it needs to be the first download to be installed before the others
will.
