Hi!

Just an idea - but have You installed the (recommended)

Microsoft XML Parser (MSXML) Service Pack 2

from the TeXnicCenter-Homepage?

Maybe deleting all prior versions and a clean install will help!?

Hi EAGLE!

Have You tried to put clocklcopy.eps in the same directory
as Your tex-file(s)? There is a security problem with relative paths
for the standard call of dvips...

But You can add the option -R0 to the dvips call, which allows relative
paths...

Have fun!

Hi!

there's a pstricks-package that can do this (pst-abspos), but
it's not implemented into MiKTeX, so You have to install it on
Your own! ( http://perce.de/LaTeX/pst-abspos/ )

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pst-all}
\usepackage[absolute]{pst-abspos}
\begin{document}
\pstSetAbsoluteOrigin ...

Hi Noctilux!

You're using the MiKTeX Net-Installer (setup-2.5.2545.exe),
which downloads all packages for offline installation...
but there's no need for downloading all packages, if You're
connected to the internet!

To update Your running system, You just have to call

START => Programs ...

Okay, You want it the hard way... ;)

As far as I remember version 2.1 creates two main search trees,
that is

c:\texmf <= the actual MiKTeX 2.1 installation path

and

c:\localtexmf <= which is the place to install "own" packages

Now compiling of the caption.zip package downloadable from here ...

By the way...

do You use a bib-file Editor?

If not => have a look here:

Have fun!

Hi!

You should use

author = "Karl~Heinz H{\"o}hne and ..."

or

author = "H{\"o}hne, K.H. and ..."

I won't use et al. - it's better to type in all authors and let
BibTeX decide !

*EDIT*

A much easier solution would be to use the latin-1 input-encoding by adding

\usepackage ...

Hi!

Sorry, my advice was not clear enough...

...MiKTeX 2.5 has the ability to install most packages on its own by
loading them out of a local or an internet package repository - So
normally You don't need to download and install packages on Your own!

All You have to do, is to install a clean so ...

Hi!

Let MiKTeX do the work by using its automatic package installation!

(You have to switch it on in the MikTeX settings and after that
just add \usepackage{caption} to Your Latex-file and start compiling...)
