As Dan said, the installation has changed completely; you now just have to do biocLite("Rgraphviz") and everything should work. Beside being easier to install, one gain of the new 2.x version of Rgraphviz was specifically to get it to work on Win 7 and Win Vista. Now, if you really, really want to use Biconductor 2.9 instead of 2.12, you are in for a possibly frustrating experience. It was hard or impossible to get Rgraphviz to work well under Windows 7 (and there is a big difference whether you use a 64 bit or 32 bit version of the OS). As far as I recall, the binary version of Rgraphviz does _not_ work, but it may be possible to get it to work if you install from source and are really careful. However, if you want to use Rgraphviz you are really much, much better of upgrading (you are generally always better off by upgrading, but in this case the gain is rather enormous).
