This has been asked several times on the group, please search before
asking.

Also, see this:
http://blog.mmediasys.com/2011/07/07/installing-mysql-on-windows-7-x64-and-using-ruby-with-it/

Contains compilation instructions to avoid version mismatch between
the compiled extension (inside the mysql2 gem) and the library
libmysql.dll

If you need further assistance, feel free to post to RubyInstaller
