Windows 8 stability

My version of R (2.15.2), 64 bit version, has been crashing sporadically running under newly upgraded Windows 8. I suspect it may be some sort of memory allocation issue. Does anyone know of ways one can diagnose and fix this problem? Thanks.

How to diagnose:

Make the crash repeatable, then simplify it to the smallest possible 
example.  Depending on the type of crash, it might help to run R within 
gdb; it can report on the location of some kinds of crash.

How to fix depends on where the bug is.
