Here yo go, to install ImageMagick and build the RMagick gem and make it all work.
Follow below steps:
- Go here mirror images.
- Download ImageMagick of any version except the currently latest release, which has some issues
- Install it with options: Add to PATH and development headers. Installation path should not contain spaces.
- In the command line type convert -version to check if everything works. It should print something like:Version: ImageMagick 6.6.1-10 2010-05-15 Q16 http://www.imagemagick.orgCopyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2010 ImageMagick Studio LLCFeatures: OpenMP
- Install the DevKit if you haven't already.
- Install the rmagick gem:
gem install rmagick --platform=ruby -- --with-opt-lib=c:/ruby192/ImageMagick/lib --with-opt-include=c:/ruby192/ImageMagick/include
(Making sure the paths point to wherever you installed imagemagick)
It should print
And after a few minutes if everything goes right, you should see
And that's it. Just two more links that were helpful: 1 blog and 2 blog if you still can't install

- The first one is a path issue. There is a convert.exe that is gettingfound before the ImageMagick one.
- The second one is because you don't have working build tools.

How to install ImageMagick on Windows 8.1, as of 5/1/2017:
- take a deep breath
- uninstall imagemagick/rmagick/everything that's failed so far
- make sure you have the DevKit that the accepted answer linked to
- Don't download the current v7 of ImageMagick. I have no idea why, but it doesn't work. Instead download ImageMagick-6.9.8-4-Q16-x86-dll.exe from here
- Install, including the headers. Since it's V6, it includes legacy utilities already so you don't have to worry about that. Install into your C: directory so there are no spaces in the path.
- Open up your environment variables. You know, System>advanced system settings>environment variables.
- Find PATH in system variables, edit and copy and paste the large variable value into a notepad or something so you can read it properly.
- Find ImageMagick's path, cut it out and paste it to the front. My PATH starts with 'C:ImageMagick-6.9.8-Q16;...' If it's not there, add it yourself.
- Update your PATH with ImageMagick at the front.
- You should be all setup, go into command prompt and type 'convert -version'. Rather than a 'Invalid drive specification' result which drove me insane, you should see the current version specifications.
- Bobs your uncle, you have ImageMagick!

this is the only approach that worked for me:
user1608920user1608920
Install ImageMagick windows binaries from https://sourceforge.net/projects/imagemagick/files/im6-exes/, findout where is it installed
Install Imagemagick Windows
Like
C:Program Files (x86)ImageMagick-6.7.9-Q16
or some other directory, depending upon your system...
And run following commands in command prompt
Replacing
C:Program Files (x86)ImageMagick-6.7.9-Q16
with directory where you actually installed Image Magick
