Question / Help Black Screens on many games + other problems

When I try to stream/record on certain games it just shows a black screen. - I am on laptop and I have read and tried everything said in https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/laptop-black-screen-when-capturing-read-here-first.5965/. On top of black screens on various games on the game "borderlands 2" when I try to record/stream that it just shows the health bar, xp bar, and mini map. It doesn't show the actual game. Instead its just black. Also when I am on the main screen of Borderlands 2 it doesn't show the game, it just shows "create new game" "invite to lobby" "load existing character" and all that stuff. Another strange problem that happens is when I try to stream/record a game called Day of Infamy. Whenever there is a car or white object, on the recording it just shows that car or white object as white. This is strange to me since I used to be able to play this game fine using obs studio. If anyone knows a fix please share! I've been trying to fix this for a week now and couldn't find anything.
