I had the same problem. See #2995 for more infos.

From my light reading this is a problem with the hard coded "fast sync" Mist uses. A workaround mentioned in #2254 worked for me. You can start a light geth node manually:

  1. Open a command prompt and enter cd %APPDATA%\Mist\binaries\geth.
  2. Enter geth.exe --syncmode light.
  3. Start Mist, and it should connect to the light node you just started.

If you want to use fast sync anyway, it looks like you'll have to wait for the next release.
