Peter, If you re-read my original post, you can see that that location was already included in my path... But I agree, I think that rpy2 is expecting the R.dll to be in C:\Program Files\R\R-2.12.0\bin and is not finding it... Is there a fix for this (besides rolling back to an older version of R)? Thanks,

Thanks, Hi, I don't remember seeing an i386 subdirectory under bin on older versions of R on Windows (and I can't check right now). Try adding this to your path: C:\Program Files\R\R-2.12.0\bin\i386 If that works, then rpy2 might be changed able to look there automatically based on the RHOME location.
