1. The .emacs file you sent can't work because you are using backslashes in
the path name and you are referencing an non-existent directory "site_lisp"

(load "C:\Program Files\emacs-21.3\site_lisp\ess-5.2.11\lisp\ess-site.el")


Inside emacs you must use forward slashes and you must use the correct
directory name "site-lisp".
(load "C:/progra~1/emacs-21.3/site-lisp/ess-5.2.11/lisp/ess-site.el")


2. Have you looked at the instructions on installing ESS with emacs that
are included with ESS?  They are in 
C:/progra~1/emacs-21.3/site-lisp/ess-5.2.11/doc/html/readme.html 
Open it in Internet Explorer and search C-F for
   1.9 Microsoft Windows installation
