Sounds like you have two disconnected things going on ...

No, in fact the installer puts it in C:\Program Files\IronRuby ...

Looks like you're running ir.exe from C:/Program Files/IronRuby 1.0v4/bin. 
Check your OS PATH environment variable and move whichever path to the desired 
ir.exe first. By the way, the first warning is because you're not running 
cmd.exe as Administrator (if IronRuby is installed in a location you're user 
doesn't have write access to). The second warning is a result of the first, and 
what it says exactly; the gem bin path is on your OS PATH, so add it.

Now on to your second issue, I guess ...

Can you please provide a smaller repro; Preferably 1-2 lines of Ruby code, and 
the source to an example DLL you're trying to load (please don't send the 
source to BusinessObjects.dll ... it won't be helpful). It's almost 100% 
certain we'll help get this fixed, but only if we can reproduce it.
