Rails - May 2009 - "gem install rails" error on Windows

Hello all.

I''m having the following problem and I can''t seem to find a
solution
for it:
running "gem install rails" on a Windows environment generates
"ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Zlib::BufError)    buffer error"

I''ve tried  ''gem update --system'', but with no
success. I am out of
sollutions but not out of hope (yet).
Please, can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks a lot,
Daniel

What version of Ruby are you running?

(Run ruby -v from the command prompt)
