    Hm, seems the case be you are using DOS. If so, then head on over to www.wotsit.org which is the place for all your file format needs. [Us old school DOS mongers need this...] If DOS is your main platform then I also recommened getting DJGPP at www.djgpp.com and also RBIL (Ralph Brown's Interrupt List), which I recommend you search for because there are various sources. First thing's first, you'll need to get yourself in a video mode, for that I recommened getting a copy of the VBE standard, I believe up to 3.0 is available for free. You'll be doing VESA, I presume. If you have anymore questions feel free to PM me or reply here on thread so that others can add input.

    Good luck!

    This may work

    Try looking up GDI+ library from MSDN, it can load JPG, BMP, GIF, WMA, TIFF, BMP, etc.. its a quite simple set to use.

    never mind all that other nonsense...

    the independant jpeg group is an organization that distrubutes the code you're looking for freely.

    Have at it. Warning though. The code is purely, nasty C.
