sorry, no idea what the problem is with that description... so I suspect most of us can't help
Also, best to not ignore the pinned post in this forum, regarding posting OBS Studio log from Recording/Streaming session, when asking for help

If Game Capture not working for you,
either:
there are many other cases not listed above, so, as was already said:
obsproject.com
either:
- you had run OBS with lower access rights than application that is captured. Try to run OBS as admin;
- your game (application) is blacklisted in OBS because of nature how its renderer works. Try Display Capture or Window Capture instead;
- you using some util (fps counter, overclocking, texture enhancer/changer or stats overlay) that modifying rendering of the game in real-time. Try to stop or even uninstall this application before using OBS (look for RivaTuner or else utils);
- your game uses new rendering techniques that has very limited support in OBS right now. Instead of Vulkan renderer try to set in the game settings Direct3D or OpenGL renderer;
- your game running on other GPU (for example you have two monitors that are connected to different video cards). Try to reorganize your setup and make sure that OBS is running on the same GPU where your game is;
- you have updated OBS but at some point you have lost access rights to
C:\ProgramData\obs-studio-hook\folder that is critical for the Game Capture source. Try to remove contents of this folder manually (it will be recreated at first use of the Game Capture source); - issue were already patched and there is new version of OBS available. Try newer version of OBS;
- your security software blocks normal work of OBS. Try to add OBS application to whitelist of your security software;
- you forgot to Fit to Screen your source. Try right-click menu of the source, look for Transform options.
there are many other cases not listed above, so, as was already said:
Please post a log with your issue! Here's how...
OBS Studio creates a log file each time you run it which contains very useful diagnostic information. Without a log file, it's much harder for any support volunteers to figure out problems and your post may be ignored. To upload a log file, go to the Help menu > Log Files > Upload Last Log...
