TeXnicCenter Compiling problems with MikTeX 2.9 Windows 7

Question

I'm installing Latex, due to PC format operation. I've installed AcrobatPro 11; MiKTeX 2.9; and TeXnicCenter (TXCSetup_2.02Stable_Win32); Ghostscript 9.11win32; gsview5.0

I usually compile like this LaTeX=>DVI=>PDF. But now it hangs on! I have to close the TXC and restart.

So now I'm using LaTeX=>PDF. But I'm still having problems with the package texdraw. The package is installed correctly, but the problem arises when introducing the command.

The bug points on the bracket that closes the sentence $\centertexdraw{ }$

The error log indicates the following:

pdflatex> ! LaTeX Error: Unknown graphics extension: .ps1

If anyone knows the solution... thanks in advance!

Please make your code snippet compilable! Welcome to TeX.SE! — Mensch, Jul 29 '16 at 16:09
Welcome to TeX.SX! Please make your code compilable (if possible), or at least complete it with \documentclass{...}, the required \usepackage's, \begin{document}, and \end{document}. That may seem tedious to you, but think of the extra work it represents for TeX.SX users willing to give you a hand. Help them help you: remove that one hurdle between you and a solution to your problem. — Martin Schröder, Aug 06 '16 at 13:22

Apparently you need to compile from LaTeX=>DVI=>PS=>PDF. LaTeX=>PDF always gives the same error. I use in the preamble:

\documentclass[dvips,pdf,xcolor,10pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amsfonts}

\usepackage{graphicx}

\usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}

%\usepackage{auto-pst-pdf}
