Out of memory issue

Hi all, Julian just reminded me I need to include the lines of code so here it is below. I am trying to run some plots on data, but when loading the CSV data file it doss that but in ggplot R is stopping and I am getting an out of memory error.
d <- read.csv batcalls.rda
Error: unexpected symbol in "d <- read.csv batcalls.rda"
If you really do have a data file called batcalls.rda, then the proper
way to get it into memory is with:
load("C:/Rainey//batcalls.rda") # replace path with the actual path
on your system and remember not to use "\"'s
attach(d)
Error in attach(d) : object "d" not found
Because of the error ... nothing got done.
library(ggplot2) print(qplot(Sc, Fc))
Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : object "Sc" not found
You cannot do anything on something that isn't there
data(batcalls)
attach(batcalls)
print(qplot(Fc,geom="density"))
b<-kmeans(Fc,c(10,15,18,30))
print(qplot(Sc,Fc,colour=as.factor(b$cluster)))
print(qplot(Dur,geom="density"))
b<-kmeans(Dur,c(10,15,18,30))
print(qplot(Dur,Fc,colour=as.factor(b$cluster)))
d <- read.csv ("C:/Rainey/RainyAllbats.csv")
OK, that appears to have run without error, so it fits into memory. Now you should run: str(d) # and report the results
attach(d)
The following object(s) are masked from batcalls :
Dc Dur Fc Fk Fmax Fmean Fmin Qk Qual S1 Sc st TBC Tc Tk
library(ggplot2) print(qplot(Sc, Fc))

You seem to be ignoring all the informative error message.
dev.off()
Anyway to tweak this somehow to get it to run? Using WinXP with 4 GB RAM
WinXP in its default state can only use around 2.5GB and that may require upping the memory limits: <http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rw-FAQ.html#There-seems-to-be-a-limit-on-the-memory-it-uses_0021 > And read the material in the links from that page as well.
