Edit: This is the error that occured:

Error: Could not initialize DirectX 10 on Intel(R) HD Graphics. This error can happen for one of the following reasons:

1.) Your GPU is not supported (DirectX 10 is required - note that many integrated laptop GPUs do not support DX10)
2.) You're running Windows Vista without the "Platform Update"
3.) Your video card drivers are out of date

If you are using a laptop with NVIDIA Optimus or AMD Switchable Graphics, make sure OBS is set to run on the high performance GPU in your driver settings.

Don't triple post for no reason.

You will not be able to use OBS with a video card like that. Even if you had a DirectX 10-compatible video card, your processor would be entirely unsuitable for streaming any kind of high resolution content, or even low resolution content if you're running a game on the same computer.

There is nothing you can do to fix it except upgrade your hardware to something modern.
