When you create the thread, save its handle and use GetExitCodeThread (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms683190.aspx) to check if the thread is still running.

Another way is to pass the thread handle to WaitForSingleObject (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms687032.aspx) or one of the other WaitForXXX functions.
