R-Community,

(System Details at end)
I recently downloaded R 1.7.0 win95 binaries from

http://cran.us.r-project.org .

After installing the program with no hitch  I used the the 'Install 
Packages from Cran' optinon in the drop down menu from Rgui. (This may 
be bad form, if so let me know): I selected all paackages to install and 
everything was fine until the 'dse' package was downloading. There was 
some error statement (I believe) involving the phrase 'failure to find 
.lib.loc' . At which point R hung. I closed R and then restarted it and 
the repeated the process being at dse and continuing to 
yap....everything was fine. Closed R and then attempted to restart at 
which point the program hung.

Uninstalled and then reinstalled R: Repeated process, got a similar 
problem of the downloading process hanging (though this time on 
'fracdiff'' package). Plowed on and Rgui started: However, when I 
rebooted my computer and attempted to start the Rgui I'm getting the 
same old problem.

Interesting enough, while Rgui crashes I can get Rterm to work---However 
I get the following at startup
After all of the intial text something to the effect:
"Error in inherits(x, "factor") :Unimplemented feature in  type2str
An error occured in collecting methods for function "initialize", 
perhaps  from C-level dispatch"

System Details:
Windows XP (Home Edition) Service Pack 1 Version 2002
Intel PIII Mobile CPU 1133mherz 384mb ram

When Rgui crashes there is a filed sent to microsoft I have included the 
contents of this file in the body of the text below and I'll try to 
attach the thing as well. If there is more info I can provide, or if 
something I'm doing is screwing my installation (most probable) please 
let me know.

Thanks,
Joel
