Disabling DirectDraw capability

[asiffayyaz]

hi

How can we disable directdraw capabilities of a display
device programmatically. Actually i have two VGA cards and
i have to turn of directdraw capability of one of them. Is there
any dxdiag api available for this.

thanks in advance

Hello,
I can't help you too much, I think if you have more than one video card, you will have to enumerate, detect and request their GUID (Globally Unique Identifiers), and use it to use only one card. I don't know if works also with DDraw, but sure it works with DirectSound, try to search something about. Maybe DDraw works as DSound, that is connected to default device and you can choose another one to use it, try a search ;)
