The second gem is for the actual .dll file, called gem.dll(when loading an external with Pd you don't include the extension ie .dll), what you have to do is to start pd from the command line with -lib and then type 'gem'(ie, the gem library) including its path, so it may look like this
pd -lib D:/my_pd_dir/my_gem_dir/Gem
For now if you like, just 'cd' to the directory with the gem.dll in it from the command line, (cd changes directory), once you are in the same directory as the gem.dll start pd like this,
pd -lib gem
That should definitely get it started. The problem you are having is that pd can't find the gem.dll in /pd/gem/, so chances are the gem.dll is not in that directory but another directory.
