Hey all. I started having problems with my OBS a few days ago. When i open it, Windows freezes for a while, sometimes it goes to a black screen for a few seconds and when it returns, i get a bug report from my gpu drivers, sometimes it just stays in black screen until i restart it. If i stream anyway when i get the bug report, i have really bad fps, which i didn't have before. Since it started happening around the time i changed a few sources and my overlay, i figured i'd just delete them, but it didn't solve the problem. My windows is updated, gpu drivers are updated, i tried reinstalling OBS, and installing an older version, it's still happening. Hope you guys can help me.

the log is on 2s worth of data. I see no crashes or error codes in the 2s provided. You say the errors mention GPU drivers. Have you tried re-installing them, updating them or doing a "clean install" of the GPU drivers. If it is an nVidia card, their drivers now come with a clean install option under custom install vs. express install. Do you have the exact error that comes to the screen? Also I noticed you are running Avast. Many AV products interfere with GPU driver installs and updates. After the download, disable those for the actual install.
