Might be helpful if you give some indication of exactly what kind of issues: error messages and the like will help us to help you. That said, "Win7Lite"? I'd imagine you're running either a pirate version (in which case you'll get short shrift here) or have used some tool to remove a chunk of Windows (in which case that's probably the reason you're having issues)

I'm not aware of an official Microsoft release called "Win7Lite" was all...

Usually odd issues with Windows Updates can be resolved by running the System Update Readiness Tool, or by cleaning the update cache as per this - give those a shot and report back. Might be worth taking a look at the Application and System logs on the affected machines too.
