RMagick-1.14.1_IM-6.3.0-7-Q8.zip is a zip file that contains both the 
rmagick-win32 gem and the Windows installer for ImageMagick. Download 
the zip file and unzip it into a temporary directory. Use the chdir 
command to make the temporary directory your current directory. Run the 
ImageMagick-6.3.0-7-Q8-windows-dll.exe command to install ImageMagick. 
Then run

gem install rmagick --local

That's it.

All this information is in the README.html file that is included in the 
.zip file.
