silly question(s) time... i know that some of these require others to
already be installed... 

they appear to be listed on the page in newest to oldest order so i should
start installing them from the bottom of the list (oldest) and work my way
up the list to the top (newest)? 

will they install even if the system's registry thinks they are already installed? 

would it be better to remove that data listing (whereever it is) that tells
what patches and updates have been installed and start fresh??
