I also had the same problem with about 6 computers that I had installed SP3
on to test the service pack. I had used Windows Update to install SP3 and
after installation and reboot I could not get the Windows Update service to
install any other updates.
The solution I found to work was to download the SP3 file to hard drive and
then install from there.

Hope this helps,
