Sorry, but you did ask one question that I did not address, "Why do you 
need a new HDC instead of using hGLDC ?" The way the nVidia GL 
extensions work is you have an affinity DC and a window DC. If you just 
use the affinity DC then all drawing is done off-screen on that GPU but 
is not displayed in your window. You need both, one for offloading the 
GL commands and the other to target the window to receive the video 
output. This is in accordance with the documentation at 
http://developer.download.nvidia.com/opengl/specs/WGL_nv_gpu_affinity.txt.
