Question / Help Failed to initialize video

[tfboy]

Cannot start OBS Studio.
Maybe my old GeForce 7600 card is too old? It has the latest drivers from nVidia. The rest of my system is pretty standard: 1920x1200 single display, Windows 10 up to date, all 3D acceleration enabled...

That card is too old to use OBS as it only supports DirectX 9.

Thanks for clarifying :)

@R1CH - what version is actually required ?
I've searched everywhere but can't find any "minimum system requirements" post.
Is DX9 supported on a previous version of OBS I could use? I'd like to avoid having to go out and buy another GPU just for this.
Thanks
