Well you certainly are going about it the hard way.  Rails is
generatlly easier on Linux (eg Ubuntu) or Mac.  In particular you will
find it easier to get help as most developers use Linux or Mac.

Rather than starting there I suggest a tutorial such as
railstutorial.org (which is free to use online).  That will guide you
through the steps in rather more detail than the guide, I believe.

You need to restart the server after changing the routes.rb.  You did
not mention that you have started the server, but I presume you have.
(rails server is the command).
