Judging from the screenshots that you showed, you are
trying to create a PDF using pdfLaTeX rather than just
LaTeX. With LaTeX, graphics should be in EPS format,
but with pdfLaTeX, the graphics formats are PDF, PNG,
and TIFF.

You should be able to convert from EPS to PDF using
the epstopdf utility. Unfortunately, that's a
command-line utility, and I don't if there is a
graphical front end for it.
