I have:

      (load "auctex.el" nil t t)
      (load "preview-latex.el" nil t t)
      (require 'tex-mik)

in my .emacs.el.

No, no error messages.

Yes, there's an error message in that case, though I don't understand much 
of it:

I am not sure I understand this.  I didn't install preview latex 
separately, but it is now combined with auctex in the developper 
version.  That's why I happened to install it in the first place, 'cause I 
don't really need preview latex (though I do like it).

See above:  There hadn't been any previous preview-latex installation.

Thank you very much for your help!
