Since it looks like you are working locally, if your html or aspx file is also sitting on your desktop, then you can simply path as 'thumb.jpg'

You are referring a local file system in web application. It is not adviceable.

Copy your image file to your asp.net web site folder and refer like

Image1.ImageUrl= "4014_thumb.jpg"; //if you have the file in the root folder
Image1.ImageUrl= "/images/4014_thumb.jpg"; //if you have the file in the sub folder(within 'images' folder)
