Need and SDL user's assistance

[jw6XoG1T]

this code wont work for some reason. It compiles and executes but the only thing that shows up is a black screen. I put the BMP in the same file as the exe. but it still wont show up when the program runs. Here's the code:

#include <SDL.h>
#include <iostream>

int main(int argc, char* args[] )
{
	//The images

	SDL_Surface *screen = NULL;
	SDL_Surface *image = NULL;

	//Start SDL

	SDL_Init (SDL_INIT_EVERYTHING);

	//Set Screen

	screen = SDL_SetVideoMode(640, 480, 32, SDL_SWSURFACE);

	//Load image

	image = SDL_LoadBMP("hello.bmp");

	//Apply to Screen

	SDL_BlitSurface(image, NULL, screen, NULL); 
	SDL_Flip(screen);
	SDL_Delay(2000);
	SDL_FreeSurface(image);

	//Quit SDL

	SDL_Quit();

	return 0;
}
