You should be able to get things to work by explicitly putting

\usepackage{Sweave}

somewhere early in your .Rnw file.  You may have trouble with MikTeX 
finding Sweave.sty, depending how you invoke it:  if invoked from R CMD 
it should work, but maybe not from your command line unless you tell it 
where to look for include files.  How you do that changes all the time; 
R tries a couple, which is why R CMD probably works.
