So I've been using OBS (64bit) for months with no problem. I even recorded multiple things on Thursday. Today when I tried to run it, it said 'Failed to initialize video. Your GPU may not be supported, or your graphics drivers may need to be updated.' I tried re-installing and same problem.

This was the latest log:

I really want to try and fix OBS before I start looking for new recording software, any help is appreciated!
 
What happens if you set OBS to run on your nvidia high performance gpu in the nvidia control panel?
