Good, so updates are installing despite the name of the Subject you chose.
Please answer this question:
* Are they showing in the list of Installed Updates *
Using the Windows Update applet in Control Panel, click the Installed
Updates link at the bottom of the left frame.
Did you attempt to install the other update I posted the link to also ?

Was the system able to be Validated or are we going to keep going back
and forth going over the steps I've previously mentioned ?

I've installed the second update too, the genuine check went smoothly
But.. in the list of updates(the history) it says they both failed(I saw
that after I turned my computer on... it fails to configure updates...)
I didn't upgraded my system to windows 7, I installed it from scratch

The Installed Updates list that can be accessed from the link in Windows

The list of updates, the one that is accessed when clicking the

necessarily accurate.

.
KB974431 is what's causing the 'fails to configure updates' because it
triggered a *false result* of the WGA check even though the system
passed the check.
Fix Windows 7 KB974431 Fails to Install With C004F050 Error
http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/11/08/fix-windows-7-kb974431-fails-to-install-with-c004f050-error
Suggest you Uninstall KB974431 from Installed Updates, restart the
system, then run
sfc /scannow
from an Elevated Command Prompt
See if the system can pass Validation by running
slmgr /rearm
from an Elevated Command Prompt.
If Windows 7 has not been hacked to get it Activated, then the only
other methods I see that may resolve this false positive message is to
1) Install the most recent release of the Windows Update Agent:
How to obtain the latest version of the Windows Update Agent to help
manage updates on a computer
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949104
Download and save the x64 version:
http://download.windowsupdate.com/windowsupdate/redist/standalone/7.4.7600.226/windowsupdateagent30-x64.exe
Once the download is complete close all open programs and browsers.
Stop the Windows Update and BITS services.
*Right* click windowsupdateagent30-x64.exe and choose 'Run as
Administrator', agree to the UAC prompts, restart after it's finished.
( You may need to add the /force switch if you get a message that the
WUA i already installed )
2) Stop the Windows Update and BITS services.
Rename Software Distribution to Software Distribution.old.
Install the latest release of the WUA, restart the system.
