Hey I just recently installed OBS and I can't get the monitor capture or game capture to work. I already updated my graphics card (NVidia) and i followed the instructions on changing the settings in the nvidia control panel and in the video settings for OBS (changing GPU to nvidia graphics card). But I'm still just getting a black screen. Is there something I'm missing? Thanks for any help btw. I'll post my log in a reply

Monitor capture requires OBS to run on the intel on switchable graphics laptops, not on the nvidia.
 
Remember that part where you went to the nvidia control panel and set obs to run on the nvidia?
Go back and set it to run on the intel.
