I thought I would update this for anyone who finds it in a search and needs help getting this working.
I believe my problem stemmed from using Pik and having two versions of Ruby installed. I'm not entirely sure about this but after removing it everything worked after I reinstalled it all. Here was the process for Windows Vista running Ruby192. 1. I first uninstalled everything. I uninstalled all versions of ruby/ gems, pik, and devkit. Restarted my PC. 2. I installed this version of Imagemagick into C:\ImageMagick-6.6.7-9- Q16, I checked every option during the install except for telling it to associate this program for file types or whatever: http://image_magick.veidrodis.com/image_magick/binaries/ImageMagick-6.6.7-9-Q16-windows-dll.exe 3. Inside of c:\ImageMagick-6.6.7-Q16\config I deleted the type- ghostscript.xml file and replaced it with a windows version which I downloaded at: http://www.imagemagick.org/source/type-windows.xml And I put that inside of c:\ImageMagick-6.6.7-Q16\config. 4. Next I downloaded and installed Devkit: https://github.com/oneclick/rubyinstaller/downloads/ 5. Then I installed the rmagick gem from the cmd command line I ran: gem install rmagick --platform=ruby -- --with-opt-lib=C: \ImageMagick-6.6.7-Q16\lib --with-opt-include=C:\ImageMagick-6.6.7- Q16\include This installed the gem just fine. If it doesn't try closing and reopening your command prompt. 6. I also called the rmagick gem from my gemfile: gem 'carrierwave' gem 'rmagick' Some other problems I ran into was sqlite3 not working properly you might need to download and extract both of these files into your ruby191/bin folder: http://www.sqlite.org/download.html I also had a problem with rake afterwards which I needed to update in the command line: gem install rake Then everything worked fine.
