Normally, you would draw a bitmap in response to the WM_PAINT or 
WM_ERASEBKGND messages, which pass a handle to the Device Context of the 
window (HDC).

Use the DC functions to draw the bitmap (BitBlt, etc.) .

If you don't have it already, download the Windows Developers' Reference 
(SDK help) from Microsoft. It is essential for Windows programming.
