ESS-help Digest, Vol 2, Issue 3

>Hi Everyone,
>In my googling (and submission to the R-help list) I still have not found a
>solution to this issue. I am using ESS 5.1.24 together with emacs 21.2.1 for
>Win32 (Win2000, in this case). The linked statistics package is R 1.6.2. I
>have had a disturbing number of system crashes (BSOD) while using this
>arrangement. The system message is usually something like "page fault on a
>non-paged region", and is often (although not always) connected to trying to
>resize the emacs window. Once it occured when quitting from another
>application entirely while the emacs window was open. The facts:
>[1] this has never occured while using emacs alone (i.e. without ESS+R)
>[2] the R-help list think it is probably not an R issue.
>
>Has anyone else had this experience? I expected this to be a known bug of
>some sort, but google etc remain silent. Any clues as to what this might be.
>I am loathe to return to the windows R gui, but  I will have to if emacs+ess
>performs this way.

>Thanks,
>Darryl Greig.
