SE ROM problem

I have an application, developed with LightspeedC, that uses a full-screen
picture display.  I had been doing a CopyBits from an offscreen BitMap to
the ScreenBits boundary rectangle to accomplish this on my 512K Mac (128K
ROMs) without any problems.  However, when I run the same code on my new SE
I get an empty menubar at the top of my picture.  What has changed?  I need
to call initWindows and initMenus before I draw the picture,  which is where
the empty menubar originates, but why doesn't copying to the screen bitmap
wipe out the menubar anymore?

I have seen other applications that do manage to get full-screen pictures
on the SE, so there is obviously some other method.  Can someone give me
some help with this?
