Error message "not installed for 'arch=xx'" when installing Rmpi in R-2.12.0

So far Rmpi only works under 32bit R as indicated in
http://www.stats.uwo.ca/faculty/yu/Rmpi/windows.htm. I am still working on
R 64bit/Rmpi/MPICH 64bit version.

Dear all,
I tried to install Rmpi 0.5.9 (MPICH-version) for R-2.12.0 under Windows
7, 64bit.
In both R-variants (32/64 bit) I get the following error message:

R 32 bit:
install.packages(pkgs="e:/download/Rmpi_0.5-9.zip", repos = NULL, type =
"win.binary")
library(Rmpi)
Error: package 'Rmpi' is not installed for 'arch=i386'

R 64 bit:
install.packages(pkgs="e:/download/Rmpi_0.5-9.zip", repos = NULL, type =
"win64.binary")
library(Rmpi)
Error: package 'Rmpi' is not installed for 'arch=x64'

There are no other R-versions on this computer.
I tried both versions of MPICH (32 and 64 bit) - same results.
I tried installing both R and MPICH in 32 bit only - same results.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
