As a general rule of thumb, it's usually best to be using the latest
version of R (which is no R 2.13.0) -- 2.10.1 came out in December,
2009, so ... try to upgrade if you can.

What do you mean "cases"?

I reckon the answer to this question is related to the amount of RAM
you have, and whether or not you are running R in 32 vs. 64 mode.

To get better help, you should paste in the code you used that
produced the error, as well as the error message itself.

You haven't provided enough information to help just yet -- the error
message you get will be *particularly* helpful, but please provide the
code you used as well.

If I had to guess, though, I'm going to go with my original "RAM +
64bit thing" as being one way to increase the number of "cases" you
can use.
