Shouldn't that be:
	hBitMap=LoadBitmap(NULL,IDI_APPLICATION); //no quotes for standard Windows bitmaps

| boom BITMAP BOOM.BMP

I have two guesses:

1. If boom is #defined as anything you will have a problem.

2. If the last line in your .RC file is not followed by a linefeed it is possible
   that is is being ignored (if RC.EXE is not written well).
