Inside TeXnicCenter, open the ?(Help)-Menue and choose the entry 'Info
about TeXnicCenter'. You'll find the version number at the top of the
displayed window.
MiKTeX prints out it version number in the first line of its log-output.
You should see a line like
This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.30.6-2.2 (MiKTeX 2.5)
While 'Version' describes the state of the used TeX-Version, the number
insides the paranthesises shows the used MiKTeX-Version.

As Karl has mentionend in hist Mail, this depends on the
output-direction you've chosen before. If you followed the line
LaTeX -> DVI [-> PS [-> PDF]]
eps is the only graphics format, that will be accepted. Therefore it
might be better to use PDFLaTeX directly
PDFLaTeX -> PDF
which accepts graphics in pdf, jpg and png-format (unfortunately no eps
and/or tif).
