I tried to download nmake and placed NMAKE.EXE & NMAKE.ERR in the 
c:\ruby\bin directory.


This is the result:

C:\>gem install sqlite3-ruby
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing sqlite3-ruby:
        ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

c:/ruby/bin/ruby.exe extconf.rb install sqlite3-ruby

checking for sqlite3.h... no

nmake
