My computer keeps telling me that I have updates to install, but when I try to install them, it won't let me!

Question

I've tried all the solutions short of reformatting- all the solutions on Microsoft Update's website; I've tried turning off my antivirus while installing updates, I've tried disabling Microsoft Update and then enabling it again... I've tried EVERYTHING! Any suggestions/solutions?!
