I'm trying to get my RefineryCMS site up and running and I'm catching a bcrypt_ext cannot load error when trying to register the first user. I have taken these steps 

C:\> gem install --no-ri --no-rdoc bcrypt
C:\> cd (path to gems root)\bcrypt-3.1.7-x86-mingw32\ext\mri
C:\(path to gems root)\bcrypt-3.1.7-x86-mingw32\ext\mri> ruby extconf.rb
C:\(path to gems root)\bcrypt-3.1.7-x86-mingw32\ext\mri> make
C:\(path to gems root)\bcrypt-3.1.7-x86-mingw32\ext\mri> make install

which fixes the bcrypt_ext issue but now i'm unable to bundle install when asked to do so after trying to run rails server. Essentially I get native extension build errors after running devkitvars.bat to be able to use the make command. I'm stuck at this point and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try checkout the bcrypt issue on github. Look through the solutions that works for some user.

Note: If you're serious in learning Rails, I suggest you get a *nix box instead (or a VM). Rails and it's friends (Gems) has NEVER been friendly to Windows. Fiddling with Windows related issues will just slow you down in learning Rails.
