I am using miktex 2.9 with texworks & windows 7 ultimate SP1 to compile my code. I am compiling using xelatex however, my code is not compiling. What should I do ? Here is my code:

\documentclass{article} 
\usepackage{pstricks}
\begin{document}    
\begin{pspicture}(-0.5,0)(2.5,1)
\psdots(0,0)(2,0)(1,1)
\end{pspicture}
\end{document}

is this what you were expecting ? can you post the errors inside your-filename.log here to diagnose the problem. – texenthusiast Mar 4 at 8:40
I don't have any problems with the same system. Do you have all the required packages installed? – percusse Mar 4 at 8:40
It compiles fine on Fedora 18 with TeX Live 2012 (and Emacs + AUCTeX) too. – Svend Tveskæg Mar 4 at 9:07
I am sorry to be rude or anything but I have never used linux or linux based systems in my life. I tried to use ubuntu but it has quite a steep learning curve so I am not going to bother to learn it. In total, I do not want any sort of linux-based solution so please could you all refrain from posting such solutions. Thanks. Also, I have re-installed miktex and this time only downloading & installing basic miktex. The issue has been resolved but I ran into what it looks like is a bug. – user5976 Mar 4 at 19:32
Whenever I download & install basic miktex and compile pstricks code everything works. Graphics is displayed perfectly. However, when I go into package manager and install all packages and then refresh FNDB and update format in Settings, all of a sudden I cannot compile my pstricks code and the graphics ceases to be displayed. I know there is something wrong but I am not a programmer and do I have any experience with tex programming whatsoever. – user5976 Mar 4 at 19:34
