I’ve searched everywhere on Google and I can’t find the answer because  
probably it’s the dumbest question and everyone has it figured it out.  
But it’s like I couldn’t find the switch to power on my PC.

I’ve got Instant Rails working on my Windows XP and the integrated gem  
Typo works too. I downloaded RadiantCMS but how do I start it?!

The easiest way is to get to a command prompt and type:

gem install radiant --include-dependencies

. . .

cd \path\to\install\dir

radiant .

And follow the instructions that it prints out.
