the call to DirectDrawCreate()  passes NULL..as one of the arguments..

MSDN says this:
"On systems with multiple monitors, specifying NULL for lpGUID causes the DirectDraw object to run in emulation mode when the normal cooperative level is set."

in this document:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/archive/default.asp?url=/archive/en-us/ddraw7/directdraw7/ddref_6oxj.asp

so it appears that multi-monitor systems will run in emulation mode.
this will  not help performance very much.
