This is due to a bug in the mini_magick gem - see Issue 145. While the issue has been fixed, a new release not yet been released.

You can try getting the unreleased version of mini_magick, though it is probably easier to just use the older version.

Manually install mini_magick (previous version), then install watir:

gem install mini_magick -v 3.5
gem install watir
