Forms in DirectX

I have not played with DirectX7 for some time, but FlipToGDISurface should not be slow. And you need to do only two things: attach Clipper and use FlipToGDISurface - I thinks it's not too much for miracle?
At least DirectX9 fullscreen sample I've provided for another thread here do show good performance.

WOW, I didn't think that would work! I will give it a go and post my progress. Thanks a lot for being patient, I am still learning and very much appreciate your time and effort.

I ended up using PaintTo, and that worked a treat with no FPS loss.
