I just upgraded my laptop from XP to Vista to find that every time I
open Windows Update. I get the images, but no text, and none of the
buttons work either. Anything that is Windows Update related behaves
like this. My laptop is clean of all viruses and such, so I don't know
what it would be. I've restarted my laptop a few times and the same
thing keeps happening. Here's some screenshots on what I'm talking
about...

I've tried to find an answer to your problem but I haven't had any
luck. The only thing I've been able to determine is that this has been
happening to others for a very long time and it involves the wu files.
Some people have overcome the problem by restoring to a date prior to
the problem but this does not seem to be an option for you. Others have
overcome the problem by reinstalling the OS.

Some have found this remedies the issue, too:

Some Windows Vista functions may not work, or Windows Vista may stop
responding
