Question / Help Game Capture problem

[hoodiegamingtv]

I'm just beginning to start out streaming and try to follow the guidelines. When i try to capture my games client, it doesnt find it but can find it under video in the settings lay out. It's hard to describe this maybe you guys can help me out. I am trying to stream a computer game on my laptop and also do not have a capture card. Let me know if I can answer questions to help figure out my situation thank!

your laptop probably has optimus (switchable graphics).
