The error code 0xc80003fA your receiving is hrReadVerifyFailure which means

Type "Services.msc" (w/o quotes)
Press OK
Find "Automatic Update"
Stop the service.
Next, rename the "SoftwareDistribution" directory to "SDOLD". The directory
is located in the c:\Windows directory
Now, restart the Automatic Update service
Click Start >Run

Find "Automatic Update"
Start the service.

Clearing the browser's cache

3. Click "Delete Files" click "Delete all offline content" click OK
4. In the "History" section, click "Clear History".
5. Click "OK".

Now access Windows Update again. Do you still get the error?

Look forward to hearing from you.
