pstricks itself loads xcolor, the reason why you do not need to load
the package color.

it makes no sense to view the dvi output when working with
PSTricks. Yap cannot show all with PSTricks created graphics.
Choose the output format ps or pdf instead. When using the
adobe reader for pdf you have to reload the document every time
when you change sonething in the document source.
It makes more sense to use Sumatra PDF instead of acroread.
