Hi,
 
I remember somebody raised the same problem .   Figures in EPS format
cannot be displayed   (though there is no problem to go through the
typseeting process) in  the PDF file generated from MikTex.
 
I just changed from PCTex to MIkTex ... there is no  problem  to
include EPS figure files on PCTex.  
 
I have tried the methods suggested so far, but the problem still
remains.

Could not imagine what has happende to my system!

This is the content of the batchfile:

> @latex -synctex=1 "%1.tex" && dvips "%1.dvi" && ps2pdf "%1.ps"

This is the (shortened) logfile:
