The microsoft error reporting tells me it's a video adapter problem, but
even with that disabled I get the same result.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've narrowed it down to one update that is causing the problem, but I
haven't noted which one it is yet!!!
hanks again.

If you can narrow the problem down - you may like to check with the Windows
Update News Group:

System restore, BIOS updates, video driver updates, virus scans all do
NOTHING to solve the problem.

There were about 10-15 individual methods of trying to
diagnose/resolve/isolate the issue including running a lengthy Dell
diagnostics tool to check the hardware and in particular, the RAM.. all
were unsuccesful in resolving the issue and all diagnostic tests
passed. The final option was to use the Dell bundled symantec PC
restore which would re-image my drive to when it was first shipped.
This is what I am trying to avoid because I am not certain that it will
fix the issue.
The most worrying thing about all this is that using Windows system
restore to go back 2 weeks doesn't solve the problem. so this would
rule out any problems with my software/drivers apart from the OS
itself, wouldn't it?

I've managed to install all other updates, but that on gives me the problem.
Any more ideas.
Thanks for your help so far.

I have the exact same problem. I have a Dell Inspiron 5160 With XP SP2
that was blue-screening on the user after start up. I soon found out
that it was happening when Windows Update was trying to run
automatically and install a few updates.
I manually installed them one by one and like you, I have narrowed it
down to KB922582.
I have tried downloading the Update and installing it in Safe mode with
the same result.
I wouldn't worry about it really except that the Machine now comes up
with a "Services.exe has terminated...." message and the machine shuts
down in 60 seconds. There is no great pattern as to when this happens
but the machine rarely stays up for more than 15 minutes without
crashing.
I don't know if the two problems are related.

You have some striking similarities to my situation.
I finally got a response back from dell and they straight away asked me
to send the laptop in for repairs. They DHLd a box to my home for
packing it, telling me to remove the HD and follow the instructions
inside the box, then call the DHL number for pick up.
I dont know if they are aware that it might be just a software problem,
but it could be hardware I guess. I'm going to go through with it and
see what happens.

1. Booted to recovery console from an XP CD and backed up the System
and Security Hives in C:\Windows\System32\Config (NOTE: May be worth
trying the System hive on its own first as the Security hive alone did
not fix it for me)
2. Copied over the original system backups of the registry hives from
C:\Windows\Repair
3. Re-installed Service Pack 2 (SP2) on the system just in case.
4. Now successfully installed all post-SP2 Windows patches, and there
seems to be no ill effects to the system!
OK I got the machine back from Dell a few weeks ago and it still
happens.( They replaced the motherboard.) I also tried a Windows Repair
but still a problem.
I guess I have two options.
1) ignore those 4 updates
2) Try a PC restore to set my hardrive back to the factory state.
I think I'll stick with 1).
