The problem is that the package tetex-tiny, that is installed
when you install lilypond doesn't contain all the fonts that
are actually used in LilyPond. The solution for you is to
simply rerun setup.exe and select the package called tetex-base,
which contains a complete set of font files.

I don't really know why this problem has persisted for such long
time. The solution is either to add some more font files to
tetex-tiny or let lilypond depend on tetex-base instead.
