Rails - Jun 2006 - Proper Directory Structure / Path for Rails Install

I have Ruby installed & working but I''ve been having all kinds of 
trouble installing Rails on Win XP.  For example, if I just do the "gem 
install rails" command, it does not recoginze gem as a proper command. 
If I cd into the ruby\bin directory, it does but then cannot find the 
local rails file.  If I specify the full path for rails, it finds the 
file & begins the install but errors out complaining, "No metadata 
found!"

All this leads me to believe I need to know what directory / file 
structure and what Path command I need to set up and use.

Anyone know where some good documentation on this can be found?  Or, 
could you easily share yours with me?

Thanks, -Rhe.
