Just in case you think Vincent is pushing his distribution as opposed to
some other approach, let me endorse his suggestion as someone who has
recently made the change to GNU Emacs.
Vincent's distribution is truly very nice. I have installed it on Vista
without any problems and for anyone who uses TeX and R it is an excellent
option.
I haven't checked John Fox's advice concerning XEmacs lately but in the
past it has been the best source of information about XEmacs and R if you
do still want to stick with XEmacs.

Hi, dear all,
I just switch to vista (ultimate) and have heard there is some problem
for the installation of xemacs on vista. Is there any insight or
experience that you could share?
Yes: go with GNU Emacs. There doesn't seem to be any compelling reason to
prefer XEmacs nowadays. And if you use my distribution
http://vgoulet.act.ulaval.ca/en/emacs
you get a wizard based installation with up-to-date AUCTeX and ESS built-in.
Otherwise, I have never heard of special issues on Vista.
