The download page gives links to the sources of PARI. There is
also a self-installing MS-Windows executable there. As for the
doc, there is a menu item which reads "Documentation". Click on
it, and there you have a user's guide, tutorial, installation
guide, ref card, manual pages. By the way, there are other
packages out there to handle large entities (on a 32-bit machine)
like 500! (Octave, Matlab, Maple, Mathematica, Yacas...). I
suggested that one because I do not know the others.

You needed phyper for that specific problem, not dhyper (the help
page for dhyper explains what dhyper, phyper, qhyper and rhyper
do).
hypg <- phyper(d,D,N-D,n)
does the job in a slightly more efficient manner.
I would suggest that you check out the following:
help.search("hypergeometric")
