Somehow you appear to have set options("device") to "devWindows". If
you set it to "windows" using options(device="windows"), things should
be fine.

Re: [R] unable to get plot in R
Please look at what I tried,
> attach(my.data)
> options(device="windows")
> plot(x,y)
Error in windows() : unable to start device devWindows

However, as i tried something else, it went like
> options(device="devWindows")
> plot(x,y)
Error in plot.new() : no active or default device

Any idea?
Thanks

Somehow you appear to have set options("device") to "devWindows". If you set

I don't think so. windows() is a family of devices, and that is what they
report if GADeviceDriver fails. That would seem to mean that either
allocation fails (unlikely) or GA_Open fails (which AFAICS only fails if
newwindow does).
We don't have the 'at a minimum' details requested in the posting guide,
and this might be something to do with the locale. I'd suggest starting R
in an English locale if that is not already the case (add LC_ALL=en to the
target of the shortcut used to start R -- see the rw-FAQ).
