Problem with Ruby Gem

Hi,
I'm using Sahi w/ a Ruby driver, and am having some initial problems getting the driver to work. I'm using Ruby 1.8.7 and Windows 7 (but have had the same problem with Ruby 1.9.2)
In a gist, here is my code:
require 'rubygems'
require 'sahi'
#I'm using IE8, note that the {at}s are supposed to be symbols
browser_path = "C:\\Program Files\\Internet Explorer\\iexplore.exe"
browser_options = "-nomerge"
{at}browser = Sahi::Browser.new(browser_path, browser_options)
{at}browser.open
In running this, I get this error:
C:/Ruby187/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/guid-0.1.1/lib/guid.rb:75:in `initialize': Can
't find random device (RuntimeError)
from C:/tools/sahi/ruby/lib/sahi.rb:85:in `new'
from C:/tools/sahi/ruby/lib/sahi.rb:85:in `open'
from automate.rb:110:in `setup'
from automate.rb:120
Do you know why this happens? Or what I should be doing? Thank you.
