I installed R (R-2.4.1-win32.exe) on a new computer with Windows Vista and a 64 bit operating system (hp dv9000 with intel core t7200). The base R runs fine, but I can not get any of the packages to load. From within R I choose install packages choose a site then a package. I tried installing 2 packages and get similar errors (see below), I just copied and pasted lines from R.
Can anyone offer any suggestions? Thank you.
