Well,
to render blank screen just do following:
1. Create new project from Win32 GUI template
2. In Project > Build setting > Linker add libtv3dc65.a
3. In Project > Build setting > Search directories > Compiler add cppgcc directory from sdk
4. In Project > Build setting > Search directories > Linker add cppgcc directory from sdk
5. Start coding, i.e.
#include <windows.h>
#include "CTVEngine.h"
CTVEngine* pTV;
