i dont like that search thing... its the worst one i have ever seen... it ALWAYS gives me an error like... string only contained ignored words and stuff like that...
Also MSDN will have info about using bitmaps with GDI. Google too.

You can''t put a bitmap on a console.

If you have a 16-bit DOS compiler, look for some stuff on mode 13h. If you''re writing a Win32 console app, you can''t use bitmaps and graphics like that.
You might want to learn the Win32 API and use GDI, and afterwards you could move onto DirectX or OpenGL.

Well, since you cannot put an image into the console, you need to either a: create a window and place the image in that or B: Ask DirectX if you can render the screen in FullScreen mode. in either case, i am not going to cover all of that because i don''t have time. The easiest is to make a window and use the GDI. DO a search over there at the MSDN for GDI, DC, the Windows Class, and the WinMain entry point.
Good luck...
