I would recommend using the new RubyInstaller instead of the old mswin32 
version. Release Candidate 1 has just been released:

http://rubyinstaller.org/ -- note: ignore the "One-Click Installer - 
Windows" section on the downloads page, look below that to the 
"RubyInstaller" section instead.

It's a much more reliable way of running Ruby on Windows, especially for 
1.9. If you combine it with Pik, you can easily switch between versions:
