This is not Ruby 2.0.0 vs Ruby 1.9.3 issue, but 64 bit vs 32 bit issue.
The msscript component was not ported to 64 bit. It's a legacy
component and MS chose not to put the effort into migrating it to 64
bit.

If you want to use ScriptControl, you should use 32 bit Ruby
2.0.0(http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/76955/rubyinstaller-2.0.0-p195.exe)
