Hello everybody,

I tried to install RMagick-1.14.1\_IM-6.3.0-7-Q8 in my windowsxp system.

C:\>ruby -v  
ruby 1.8.6 (2007-03-13 patchlevel 0) [i386-mswin32]

C:\>gem -v  
0.9.2

C:\>rails -v  
Rails 1.2.3

For that I download the RMagick 1.14.1 binary gem for Ruby 1.8.5 from  
[http://rubyforge.org](http://rubyforge.org).

After downloading I got the following files :

ImageMagick-6.3.0-7-Q8-windows-dll.exe  
rmagick-1.14.1-win32.gem  
RMagick-1.14.1.tar.bz2  
README-RMAGICK.txt  
README-RMAGICK.html  
README.html  
md5sum.txt

But can’t get software.md5 file inside the .zip…

After that I used ImageMagick-6.3.0-7-Q8-windows-dll.exe as per  
instruction\>  
But at the end I got an error like unable to execute file : ppm  
ShellExecuteEx failed; code 2.  
The system cannot find the file specified.

Whats this error .
