   (i) this is not a MikTeX, but a LaTeX question,
  (ii) look at, e.g.,

http://amath.colorado.edu/documentation/LaTeX/reference/figures.html

where you will find that image processing is extraneous to
LaTex itself (i.e. you will not see an image in foo.dvi),
but dvips does. But as the name (`dvi to ps') says dvips
processes eps (`Encapsulated PostScript'); so before running
\includegraphixs you will have to convert your foo.png image
to a foo.eps graphics file. There are several programs for
that; google  `png to eps' for further info on that.
