Default cant successfully install any updates

Looking for any assistance in enabling my computer to successfully install
the numerous updates that have yet to be installed on my system...If I am not
mistaken I believe the first update (that cannot be successfully installed
originated back in 2003.

Please help!

looking forward to hearing from you
