I've checked, and it turned out that the Windows binary of 'sfit' was
incorrectly flagged as an x64-only package.  I've uploaded a correct
version.  Please try again.

source("http://www.braju.com/R/hbLite.R";);
hbInstall("aroma.affymetrix");

should do.

To clarify, the 'sfit' package is used for the allele-crosstalk
calibration of *any* SNP chip type.  The error has nothing to with the
chip type you are trying to process; the error is that the package
'sfit' cannot be loaded.  I suspect that when you processed the
Mapping50K_Hind240 chip type, you had a different R setup, than you
have now, e.g. you installed R v2.12.0 since(?).  R v2.12.0 do more
rigorous sanity checks when loading Windows binary package and I guess
R v2.11.0 let it pass unnoticed (which in turn is indeed ok with the
'sfit' package).
