That still doesn’t work for me 🙂

Looks like I’ve messed up the install somehow. I used the ruby one-click  
installer. I selected C:\Program Files\ruby. However, I also have a  
C:\ruby folder and thats’ where all of the win32 stuff is. I think I’m  
going to re-install.

OK, I’m good now. I had part of ruby in C:\Program Files\ruby and  
another part in C:\ruby

Embarrassing… 🙂

Thanks for the tips!
