By the looks of it this issue is rather common in this forum so I apologize in advance for posting another thread on this but I looked up many threads and tutorials on how to fix this and nothing seems to work for me. I am trying to record myself playing CS: GO and am using a laptop.

My steps:
1- Open Obs and CS:GO
2 Set the settings recommended for my laptop
3- Scene.- Add Scene
4- Sources- Game capture (yes I tried checking the Anti-cheat compatibility hooking box)
5- Start recording

My specs:
1- NVIDIA GeForce GT 745M
2- Intel Core i7-4700MQ

My logs:

Thank for your time!

What R1ch said but also, you have a Monitor capture in front of a game capture so remove the monitor capture as it wont work well with switchable graphics.

Second, uncheck the anticheat hook with CS:GO, It isn't needed
 
R1ch, I had already read that post and followed the instructions, didn't help. Also in light of the quick note I set my Physx Configuration to GeForce GT 745M instead of the Auto-select they recommended (I think that's what the note was telling me to do).
dping, just did as you told me. Didn't help either.

Last, set your video in the video tab of OBS to nVidia. I quoted below because it explains why this needs to be done below. If you dont see an nVidia Card in the video tab of OBS, then you haven't set OBS in the nVidia Control Panel.

Because of this fact, it can often cause capture issues. Your laptop may be drawing one image to the power saving GPU, and another to the performance GPU. However, in order for OBS to capture efficiently, OBS itself must be running on the same GPU as that you wish to capture. If OBS is running on adapter A, and an image is being drawn on adapter B, you will get a black screen when trying to capture it.

Could you please restart OBS, stream for a few minutes as if its working then post another logfile?
