Question / Help Recording Skyrim gameplay

When I try and record Skyrim, I get the audio from my mic and the game, but no video. It's just a black screen.
I am pretty sure that I have uninstalled ALL of my mods that concern graphics. The only mods I have installed are from the Steam Workshop which include Leveling Merchants Wallets, Detailed Cities, Isilmeriel's LOTR Weapons, Project Reality:Climates of Tamriel- Lite Version, and Run For Your Lives.

I shall warn you in advance: I am very new to this kind of stuff. I have never done anything like this ever, so forgive me if I seem like I don't understand much of what you are saying.

here is my most recent log file:

First, your system is fairly dated, and not the most ideal for streaming. The graphics adapter in particular is ancient, and might not support the required features -- I can see performance impact of your system at the end of the log and it's somewhat bad. It might be causing the black screen, but I'm not entirely sure. I think it is though.

Second, you need to downscale to stream at that bitrate. Make sure to use the estimator to see what settings are recommended for you to use.

Okay. I'm currently saving up for a gaming computer, so this is temporary. May I ask: What is the estimator? And how do I "downscale to stream at that bitrate"?
