No you can't you need all the updates because one follows after the other. Remove the first ones and the last one would not work because it's built on the platform of the others!

The motherboard has nothing to do with the updates.

Yes you can remove them all (jre and j2se) apart from the most recent version (version 6 update 7). In fact old versions that remain leave pcs open to malicious exploits, vundo/vitumonde is one of those viruses that exploits those vulnerabilities.
