[R] Problems running 'R' on Windows-2000

[Yanicky, Richard]

I run R 1.3.1 on Win 2000 Pro and I don't have any problems. I don't use the
--vanilla switch.

my Rprofile is completly commented out(This is the way it came). Here is a
copy of my Rconsole(I made no changes to it):


# Optional parameters for the console and the pager
# The system-wide copy is in rwxxxx/etc.
# A user copy can be installed in `R_USER'.

## Style
# This can be `yes' (for MDI) or `no' (for SDI).
MDI = yes
# the next two are only relevant for MDI
toolbar = yes
statusbar = yes

## Font.
# Please use only fixed width font.
# If font=FixedFont the system fixed font is used; in this case
# points and style are ignored. If font begins with "TT ", only 
# True Type fonts are searched for.
font = TT Courier New
points = 10
style = normal # Style can be normal, bold, italic


# Dimensions (in characters) of the console.
rows = 25
columns = 80
# Dimensions (in characters) of the internal pager.
pgrows = 25
pgcolumns = 80
# should options(width=) be set to the console width?
setwidthonresize = yes

# memory limits for the console scrolling buffer, in bytes and lines
bufbytes = 65000
buflines = 8000

# The internal pager can displays help in a single window
# or in multiple windows (one for each topic)
# pagerstyle can be set to `singlewindow' or `multiplewindows'
pagerstyle = multiplewindows


## Colours for console and pager(s)
# (see rwxxxx/etc/rgb.txt for the known colours).
background = White
normaltext = NavyBlue
usertext = Red
highlight = DarkRed




Hope this helps.

No.
Does the crash still occur when you start R with:
  RGui --vanilla

I guess it is something with your Rprofile or workspace that goes wrong.
