Please do read the R-admin manual and see what it says about compilers and Vista. You haven't told us your version of R (as the posting guide asked you to)! Look at the R-patched version at https://svn.r-project.org/R/branches/R-2-5-branch/doc/manual/R-admin.texi (and search for 'Vista') for recent information for R 2.5.x, or use the version in R 2.6.0 RC if you are using that. > Have installed MinGW and set the path properly.

They are not distributed for a very good reason, and it seems you have not bothered to look at the repository to see why: http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/2.5/@ReadMe http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/checkSummaryWin.html You could make use of Uwe Ligges' autobuilder to make a binary for yourself: again see the R-admin manual for details. -- Brian D.
