Question / Help OBS Studio Your GPU may not be supported

[Claude671]

The error says Failed to initialize video. Your GPU may not be supported, or your graphics driver may need to be updated. I updated my drivers, and OBS studio was working earlier today until I uninstalled it and them installed it again.


plz hurry





I have an MSI GeForce GTX 1050ti gddr5 4gb at its latest drivers.

Why did you post a log from classic?

 

[Claude671]

I went to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\OBS\logs.


Is that not where I should go?

 

[Claude671]

This is a snip of the error.

 

[Harold]

No it is not
%appdata%\obs-studio\logs

 

[Claude671]

Sorry, here is the log. Thanks for responding btw.

 

[Harold]

delete the entire contents of your %appdata%\obs-studio folder.

You broke the settings by entering bad numbers in the video settings.

 

[Claude671]

Do I reinstall it?

 

[Harold]

No, you do EXACTLY what I told you to do.

Dos this work on a 32-bit computer? I had the same problem.

 

[Harold]

@Ira A Pacheco your computer is too old.

@Ira A Pacheco your computer is too old.

My computer is too old? So I can't do anything with the software?
How can I update a computer?

 

[OG See OH Zee]

@Ira A Pacheco Get a new PC that handles Direct3D 11. The computer you have doesn't handle that API because it only goes up to DX9 by the video drivers.

I made a profile to tell you arrogant shits to go fuck yourselves! Fuck you! What kind of advice is 'get a better computer' when obs was working on my computer fine, but now it isnt.
You shits are to blame, and YOU are the reason people think free software is shit.
Fuck you all.

My advice is to get your money back and don't take no for an answer...

It looks like you fixated on someone else's situation that wasn't the same as yours just so you could complain rather than make your own post with your own session logs so that people could actually help you.,
