I upgraded R on windows xp from 2.12.2 to 2.13.1 and now I can not

ISO encoding latin2, which is supported.
Have you read this and tried latin2?

file.Rnw declares an encoding that Sweave does not know about
What can I do beside downgrade R? When will Sweave support more
encodings? Has anybody found a solution?
It is a great pity that you did not raise this during the alpha/beta/RC
period of R 2.13.0, and that you did not give the 'at a minimum'
information asked for in the posting guide so we do not know your locale.
Nor do we have the 'commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible'
example we asked for.
These things happen because of lack of cooperation from users with unusual
requirements. Note that in several months no one else has reported a need
for cp1250.
The short answer is that now 2.13.1 was missed, it will be 2.14.0 and
2.13.1 patched: please do try a version of the latter dated tomorrow or
later (r56361 or later) since there is no way we can test if the change
made is adequate without your example.
Next time you wish to request an enhancement to R for an very unusual usage
case, please write to R-devel with full details and an example. Very much
preferably, do so during the pre-release testing period.

I don't think that Windows-1250 a.k.a cp1250 encoding is unusual usage case
as it is default native encoding for Rgui on Windows XP in Slovenia,
Slovakia, Hungary, Czech Republic, Romania, Albania, Croatia, Bosnia and
Serbia.
I'm providing minimal example, it's a modified example from Sweave
installation.
%%%%%%%%%%% file: example-1.Rnw
\documentclass[a4paper]{article} \usepackage[slovene]{babel}
\usepackage[cp1250]{inputenc} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\title{Sweave Example 1} \author{Friedrich Leisch}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
In this example we embed parts of the examples from the \texttt{kruskal.test}
help page into a \LaTeX{} document:
<<>>= data(airquality, package="datasets") library("stats")
kruskal.test(Ozone ~ Month, data = airquality) @ which shows that the
location parameter of the Ozone distribution varies significantly from month
to month. Finally we include a boxplot of the data:
\begin{center}<<fig=TRUE,echo=FALSE>>= library("graphics") boxplot(Ozone ~
Month, data = airquality) @ \end{center}
\end{document}
