I am definitely not an ESS expert, so somebofy might know a better way.

In my .emacs I do


(setq-default inferior-R-program-name
	      "C:/Program Files/R/R-2.15.1/bin/x64/Rterm.exe")
(setenv "PATH" (concat "C:\\Program Files\\R\\R-2.15.1\\bin\\x64" ";"
    (getenv "PATH")))

(require 'ess-site)
