RedCloth gem installation problem

Hi. I can't install RedCloth gem.

Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: Error installing RedCloth:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

same problem.

You need install RubyInstaller DevKit from rubyinstaller.org:

http://rubyinstaller.org/downloads

And install following the instructions here:

I did it all as it say's there, but on step 5, i tried to install gem
with "gem install rdiscount --platform=ruby" and it showed the same
error:

c:\>gem install rdiscount --platform=ruby
Temporarily enhancing PATH to include DevKit...
