I am using miktex 2.1 with WinEdt 5 and Windows 98. I have gathered all the files I need so that
I can latex my prosper slides. This appears to work without any problems.
However when I try and view the dvi produced I get the message:

Error: PostScript problem:

I am using Yap 0.98n for viewing the dvi files.
I am able to use the same latex file to produce dvi, postscript and pdf on our sun solaris machine.
Any help is greatly appreciated
