Check the device manager just to make sure nothing is wrong there.

Try renaming the SoftwareDistribution folder (it actually worked for me once
when I got this error) assuming you're not running Panda Antivirus - that was
a problem a couple of years or so ago.

Click Start, Choose Run.
In the Run box, type services.msc.
Click OK.
Right-click the Automatic Updates service.
Click Stop.
Stopping the service will take a moment.

Rename the "SoftwareDistribution" folder:

Click Start, click Run, type: %systemroot%
Click OK.
Right-click the SoftwareDistribution folder, and then click Rename.
Type SoftwareDistribution.old, and then press ENTER to rename this folder.
Click Start. Choose Run.
In the Run box, type services.msc.
Click OK.
Right-click the Automatic Updates service.
Click Start.
Starting the service will take a moment.

Please note that your update history is contained in the "datastore" folder
and when you rename the Software Distribution folder, the history is lost but
it's not important. You can if need be, copy the contents back from the
renamed softwareDistribution.old folder. Losing the history of Windows
Updates is not important.

Make sure you do a reboot before attempting WU again.

Also note that the servers at MS may be under a little stress and everyone
is trying to update.
