Please install a newer version of Ruby, like using RubyInstaller:

It includes updated RubyGems that works with newer RubyGems.org gem
hosting.

When I type following command and hit enter I got an error

c:\gem update --system

You’re stuck there because that old version of Ruby tries to download
gems from RubyForge, which no longer provides gem hosting.
