Hello!

I've got no experience with Windows, but I know you can get a binary modules 
for Windows at Masahiro's HP. Try http://www.tmtm.org/mysql/ruby/ (of course 
it's japanese, but the name of the files are in english).

If you need just mysql and are not planning (or foreseeing) a change in the 
database engine, you can use just Masahiro's modules. But I strongly advise 
you to use it in conjunction with Ruby/DBI. So that, in the future, if you 
decide to change database, you need just to change the base module; the 
top-layer remains the same. You can find Ruby/DBI at http://ruby-dbi.sf.net/ 
And you need not to compile it, for MySQL it's 100% Ruby code.
