browser.window(:how, 'what').use  

is a method only supported by Watir-Webdriver.

If you are using Watir (which I presume since you did not include the watir-webdriver tag) then that is why you are getting the error you see regarding 'undefined method'. You need to use

browser.attach(:how, 'what')
