XP Activated - No Updts Available

Got a new motherboard, had numerous problems trying to get XP to work, and ended up reloading. Had to call Microsoft to activate (i.e. did it over the phone with a key provided by the rep there). Go to microsoft.com for the Windows Update, and I can't seem to get ANY updates to show (as if my license wasn't really activated, even though when I check it, says it IS activated). Any Recommendations?

Dear friend, since you have changed your motherboard do you have your system date and system time correct in your BIOS because an incorrect date and time are known to cause problems with update. amit_nine03@yahoo.co.in
