Thanks for your promp reply! None of the critical updates were greyed out in 
my list that I recall. I will check again tomorrow and make sure. Real life 
got in the way and I didn't get much computer time today.

I would just download the critical updates that windows has to offer.
Are any of them the ones that are greyed out in your list?
