Have you checked that your 'PATH' environment variable is set correctly?
In R

$PATH
...
[14] "C:\\Program Files\\Graphviz2.20\\bin"
...
The relevant files in this directory might look like
> list.files(strsplit(Sys.getenv("PATH"), ";")[[1]][[14]], "dll")
[1] "iconv.dll" "intl.dll"
[3] "jpeg62.dll" "libcairo-2.dll"
[5] "libcdt-4.dll" "libcgraph-4.dll"
