I use the same syntax and get this error:

! Undefined control sequence
1.75 \includegraphics
[width=3in]{FS2004.jpg}\\
?

What is this error? Everyone uses this code and it works. Am I missing something?

i use the format for figure insertation as:

\begin{center}
% Requires \usepackage{graphicx}
\includegraphics[width=4in]{p1.jpg}\\
\emph{Figure 1: Schematic Diagram of the experimental setup}
\end{center}

there will be an error at :
