I think you may need to add:

drop `res'

at the end of your loop. Otherwise, the repeated calls to -tempvar res- each time through the loop will create an additional new variable. Given the nature of rolling regressions, that becomes about 1 variable per observation in the dataset and could easily lead to exceeding the limit on # variables. By the way, if you don't know what an error code means, you can always just type error ###. In the case of error 902, it says "no room to add more variables due to width".
