Javascript Runtime not node.js

Hi,

I have followed the video but i am having a slight problem towards the end. Jason states that the javascript runtime on the rail installation must be node.js. I have downloaded and installed node.js but my javascript runtime still says 'JScript'. Anyone know how to change this to node.js?

Cheers

Nevermind, I fixed it. If you're running under a Windows environment, try to add C:\Windows\System32 in your PATH environment variable. I was messing with execjs config files to force recognition, but this simple thing worked for me and now JS runtime is set to NodeJS.
