  using WinEdt -   the commands for latex and DVIWINDO are correctly
  defined inside WinEdt and so they work just fine.

I suspect something in the dvips configuration is wrong.

I'm curious -  in what order did you install ghostscript and
gsview ????  ;-)   It may be that it is similar to the  problem
with installing  the tex system, and *then* installing the fonts.



your problem is  going from DVI to PS ....

not sure - look at your  WinEdt   configuration and see where *that*
has DVIPSONE pointing to... and...

look at the   c:\yandy\fonts\ folder and see if the .tfm files are
   in there   ;-)  and

it is *ghostscript* that needs to know where the fonts are installed
