I think that the only gem for XP that works (unless you''re running  
cygwin) is the postgres-pr adapter.

gem install postgres-pr

For the adapter setting in the database.yml file:

   adapter: postgresql

good luck!

I use the C library and build from source.  You''ll have to do a small
bit of manual work to get it to build, namely copying lib\ms\libpq.lib
to lib\pq.lib.  That, or you''ll have to modify the extconf.rb file.
