I installed R project 1.9.0 on Windows XP.  The installation went well. Then, I
rebooted.  Next, I clicked the icon under Programs in the Start menu and
received this error, "Fatal Error: Invalid HOMEDRIVE".  I clicked OK to the
error message.  The program does not start.  I went to a DOS prompt and did
“echo %HOMEDRIVE%” and it returned “C:”.  This letter is a valid drive letter. 
Can you tell me how to fix this?  
Thanks you,
