[AUCTeX] preview-latex does not show any pictures

[coolbeaver]

Hi @all,

First of all, i have already searched in various forums and ducomentation
files to get rid of the problem, but somehow nothing did solve the problem ,
so here we go.

I use Windows with GNU Emacs 23.1 installed on the machine and a obviously
working auctex running (auctex was installed as in the tutorial by running
the "make" and "make install" commands.) PDF Files as well as DVI output
files can be generated without any problems. I also have added the necessary
lines to the .emacs file as described in the tutorial to load auctex und
preview-latex.

The problem arises when i try to get preview pictures rendered in source by
preview-latex. 
I have the actual Ghostscript (version 9.01) installed and the PATH variable
set.
The file used for testing is an unmodified version of "circ.tex".
I alos tried this for different picture types such as PNG, PNM, ...  and i
have also additionally installed the libpng and zlib into the bin directory
of GNU emacs.

The problem is, after running the "preview for document" command i see no
preview pictures but "no-entry" error signs in the source code. Clicking
with mouse button 3 resuts in the following Post-script error message:

Unfortunately, i have no idea, what´s really going wrong here, so maybe
someone can lend a hand? ;-)

Thanks in advance,
Franz
