htm help file question

I have a help file called "help.htm". It is located in
the \windows directory. The help.htm file uses some
picture files(pic1.jpg,pic2.jpg,...) which is located in
\windows\pic\.

I can use file explorer to open the help.htm and it works
fine.

But in my program, When I try to open the file by using
CreateProcess("peghelp.exe","help.htm",...), I got
error "can not find file in \windows\pic\pic1.jpg,...".

But if my help file does not include the picture, I can
open the help file using CreateProcess(...).

What is the problem?

One of the limitations of the built in help viewer is all images must be
located in the same folder as the htm file (\windows). I'm not sure also if
JPEGs are supported, I have a nagging suspicion that only Bitmap (bmp, 2bp)
files are allowed.
