Updating works? Can you use the repobrowser?

400 Bad Request indicates some network problem. Maybe a firewall?
Note: if you can browser your repository with your webbrowser, that
doesn't mean that you can commit/update/ls/... because the webbrowser
doesn't use WEBDAV commands which _may_ be filtered by firewalls.
Also, I strongly recommend to use https over http. Much more secure and
as a bonus you will find that firewalls which block WEBDAV commands
can't block you anymore (since the commands are encrypted too).

If you uninstall TSVN, everything gets deleted. Only some URL-histories
might still be left in the registry, but that has no effect on TSVN's
behaviour - it's just the "last used URL" list. Located under
HKCU\Software\TortoiseSVN

What kind of authentication do you use? Did you change your
password/username lately? Try deleting the directory
%APPDATA%\Subversion and try again.
