Running node.js w/ supervisor in win8

I'm trying to get my node server running w/ supervisor. I had it working in Windows 7, but now it keeps failing. Here's the output:

"C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe" C:\Users\Mark\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\supervisor\lib\cli-wrapper.js --no-restart-on error server.js

DEBUG: Running node-supervisor with

CreateProcessW: The system cannot find the file specified.
DEBUG:   program 'server.js'
DEBUG:   --watch '.'
DEBUG:   --ignore 'undefined'
DEBUG:   --extensions 'node|js'
DEBUG:   --exec 'node'
DEBUG: Starting child process with 'node server.js'
DEBUG: Watching directory 'D:\Websites\MyProject' for changes.
DEBUG: Program node server.js exited with code 127

This guy suggested trying nodemon instead, but the result is more or less the same:

"C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe" C:\Users\Mark\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\nodemon\nodemon.js server.js
26 Jan 22:23:10 - [nodemon] v0.7.1
26 Jan 22:23:10 - [nodemon] watching: D:\Websites\MyProject
26 Jan 22:23:10 - CreateProcessW: The system cannot find the file specified.
[nodemon] starting `node server.js`
26 Jan 22:23:10 - [nodemon] app crashed - waiting for file changes before starting...

However, if I run "vanilla" node.js, it starts up fine:

"C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe" server.js
Listening on http://localhost:8081

What might be the problem? Is it the server.js file it can't find? Why wouldn't it be able to find it?

Rebooted Windows, problem went away. It starts up fine now. Probably just needed to restart either Windows or my IDE to refresh some file paths :-)
