    You could go with MS's DirectX. You should already have the header files in your include directory (if you've installed MSVC). Those are probably not the most current but you can get them here: www.microsoft.com/directx

    Or you could go with OpenGL www.opengl.org. Again you should already have the header files in your include directory/GL.

    Simple DirectMedia Layer is a nice API that I've been using lately. It's much easier than DirectX and let's you use OpenGL for the 3D stuff. www.libsdl.org

    Allegro is another popular choice by some people here.
