Image stored in C:\ as background for html document

I have this nice little line of code

<html style="background-image:url(file:///C:\inetpub\wwwroot\lifehacks.png); background-repeat:repeat; background-attachment:fixed; overflow:scroll;">

I'm basically putting together a practice website to get used to html. When I had the background as a link to a website containing the image such as this

style="background-image:url(http://a0.twimg.com/profile_images/1381375879/lifehacks10.png)

It worked fine. I saved the image to my wwwroot folder, which contains my html documents. Why won't it display the image now?

If the image is in the same folder as your html documents you can just do this:

<html style="background-image:url(lifehacks.png); background-repeat:repeat; background-attachment:fixed; overflow:scroll;">
