Dear Uwe and folks,

I had connections to CRAN daily and won't have problems for most packages,
but only some does. Installed directory is:
C:\Documents and Settings\R\library\downloaded_packages

 I do not have set library path except the R default. I tried to download
"lme4 and packages that unable to install", but still same error message
came up.

error in normalizePath(path) :
path[1]: no such file to load

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Odette
