windows update failures ?

[goneflat]

I haven't updated windows7 for almost a year, same with security essentials and malwarebytes.
I had success with MSE and malwarebytes but when I updated my win7 I had success with only 9 of 63 updates and after trying several times I finally went to troubleshooter and clicked through a few different times.
The updates seem to not install, like maybe they all are written, just not installing.
I also successfully updated my P8Z68-V bios.
The windows updater will not automatically update and install my updates.
What am I doing wrong?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

You may have to install some of these manually, I've seen this before on machines that haven't been updated for a while. You can get the installation packages of all the updates from here: http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Home.aspx

For this many updates it could take a while as you need to get all of the KB numbers in Windows Update one by one and download and install each.
