My guess would be that you have a version of preview.sty in your
search path that is too old to work with the current preview-latex.
But I think that the log files should mention that, or it should be
apparent from the run buffer you get with C-c C-l.

Incidentally, had you used M-x preview-report-bug RET as mentioned in
the docs and available from the menus, we'd have gotten more
information.

The latest version of preview-latex is AUCTeX 11.81, by the way
(preview-latex now is bundled).
