Been having an issue with OBS for some time now in which, no matter what I do, OBS will refuse to launch. I have tried uninstalling the program and reinstalling 3 separate times now, and even with all of this, there seems to be no crash log to show me what has happened. When I open it, the program will appear on for a few seconds in task manager, however from there it will immediately cease, and nothing will open.

I noticed this issue after enabling a BIOS setting to allow my internal graphics card to give display to a second monitor, while my primary monitor is enabled by my R9 390x. This appears as strange to me as well, because I used to use OBS often even with this unique configuration.
 
When checking event viewer on my PC, this application error is the closest thing to a crash log I can find. I have tried downloading older builds of OBS as well, to no avail.

Then disable the BIOS setting to not use the onboard GPU. Your R9 390x has multiple ports on the back of the card.
There should be 3 DisplayPorts and 1 HDMI port.

Go buy a HDMI to HDMI cable and connect the secondary monitor to the r9 390x. You don't need to use the motherboard integrated GPU.
