Hey John,

a brief note explaining what you had to do to get that
windows/MPICH2/R/Rmpi stack going would be worth posting
here for those who come afterwards.

Even if your experience is: installed R, installed ,MPICH2
and Rmpi just reconciled the bits it needed, it is as least
a confirmation of that process from someone who has actually
got it going.
