Solve : computer freezing while installing?

Answer»

Basically What happened was I got a new graphics card, so I had a tech buddy help me install it. but he thought it would be a good idea to install windows xp pro and basically tune up my computer. Well after we re-imaged it it has had problems installing some things. Most of the windows updates did fine but IE 8 gave me some freezing up trouble but eventually worked. KB951847 freezes the computer while installing but KB 975562 just doesn't install. I have already re installed steam and impulse without issue, but when I try to GET my games back both steam and impulse are able to download the games but not able to install them, they freeze the computer. I have tried downloading EVERYTHING from windows and even the nvidia driver for the new graphics card directly from the site (nvidias site freezes the computer, and it's the only site that does.)

here is the BSOD check view thing (I had two BSOD while trying to fix it myself)
