Could be due to Rinda patching that doesn't work with newer Ruby versions on Windows: https://github.com/sporkrb/spork/pull/253

It's probably best to switch to something like Zeus or Spring, except that fork() doesn't work on Windows. So the best approach is to just use a virtual machine, like Vagrant to run the project on Linux. (Guard uses Listen, and Listen at 2.x supports TCP so you can edit files on the Windows machines and have Guard run the tests on the virtual machine).
