So this is the code. I'm following a book and I checked If I made any mistakes. The picture shows what the error is. Can someone help?

Also, what is the default location for a file/bitmap/jpg in my case?

Here goes one problem

if (d3ddev = NULL)
	{
		MessageBox(hwnd, "Error creating Direct3D device", "Error", MB_OK); 
		return 0;
	}

Use '==' to test for equivalancy. Which explains why you make it to the exception being thrown. I'm guessing this call is failing here. Make sure the values you are passing to this function are valid

d3d->CreateDevice( D3DADAPTER_DEFAULT, D3DDEVTYPE_HAL, hwnd, D3DCREATE_SOFTWARE_VERTEXPROCESSING, &d3dpp, &d3ddev);

Not sure if this is the problem, the book has the same code for device as mine. Is there anything that could possibly be wrong?

Trust me on this one. All technical books have errata. In this case I'm very much assuming the technical editor missed this. Add the '==' to that if condition, and you should see that error message box popup telling you that device creation failed.

Then it must be a typo, consider the following:

struct Foobar {
	int x;
	void frobnicate() {
		cout << this->x;
	}
};

int main() {
	Foobar* f = new Foobar {3};
	if ( f = nullptr ) { // Compiler should warn about this line
		return -1;
	}

	f->frobnicate(); // This will always crash
	delete f;
}

Oh awesome! It works now, thank you so much!

I'd also recommend turning on the compiler warning that will catch this, by increasing the warning level to 4 in Visual Studio.

You could even go as far as turning that warning into an error by doing:

#pragma warning(error : 4706)
