Error when importing gem

[clxe]

I'm having some trouble with using the gem.
I run gem install ashton and it installs ashton-0.1.4 fine.
However, when I try to require "ashton" in my Ruby code, I get this error:

C:/ruby193/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/ashton-0.1.4/lib/ashton.rb:8:in `require_rel
ative': cannot load such file -- C:/ruby193/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/ashton-0.1.

When I opened up the gems directory, I found the ashton.so file in the /lib/1.9 directory. When I copied it into /lib, I got a new error:

C:/ruby193/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/ashton-0.1.4/lib/ashton.rb:8:in `require_rel

I'm running Ruby 1.9.3 on Windows 8.1.

I know I've had a similar issue reported before, but I can't remember what the problem was. Not sure what to suggest.

Someone on the Gosu forums had the same problem and fixed it by downgrading to ruby 1.9.2, but not sure why that would help at all.
