Windows 7 XP Mode will not update

Has anyone else seen this and found a fix?

On the last 6 Dell Inspiron 660s I have purchased in the past month, Windows XP Mode on the Virtual Machine will not download updates. SP3 is installed by default, but only IE6. I can get 1 small, simple update (didn't take not of exactly which one) to download and install, and then not a single update after will download. I have allowed computers to run for 3 days solid and it claims it is downloading updates, but never downloads  ... stays at 0%. I don't know where to go anymore. On other computers I've bought it works fine, which makes me think this could be a hardware incompatibility issue that Dell will not acknowledge (I've been on the phone for hours with them and each time I'm told to do the same over and over, uninstall XP mode, reinstall, yadda yadda yadda. Same result every single time).

Does Microsoft have a DVD I can download with everything from SP3 onward that I can just run the DVD and it does the rest?  That would be helpful unless someone can tell me how to get these updates working.
Thank you in advance.
