Hello.
Yesterday i switched from W7 to W8 and now I can't use OBS for recording LoL anymore. I do use a laptop and I do have 2 graphic card BUT both programs ARE running on nVidia. I've also tried running these programs on administrator mode and went trough the settings and stuff... however I still get a black screen when trying to capture the gameplay.
I've also tried the log analyzer which I'll post here too:

You made sure to add BOTH the 32 and 64 bit OBS exe to the NVIDIA control panel and set them to use the performance adapter?

Alternatively, just set the Global 3D settings profile to throw everything on to your NVIDIA GPU.

(You can't disable Aero in Windows 8)

Yup, I did. First thing I did after I installed both of them was going to the NVIDIA control panel and set Global 3D. :/ I also thought it might be a problem with the Windows Defender program so I excluded these 2 from its runs or whatever it is doing.
