Question / Help Streaming older games (Late 90's - Early 00's)

Hello, I've got some problems getting my stream to work when streaming some older games:
Divine Divinity.
Fallout.
Baldur's Gate
And similar.

First I might mention that newer games works fine.

Ok so here's my problem.
When using Game Capture, the preview window is simply black. Pretty much like it doesn't detect the game. (Although I've chosen the correct game as the Source)

I also tried Window Capture. With Window Capture, I can see the game in the Preview, however it's flickering a lot.
Also tried Screen Capture with Aero on and off, same problem as with Window Capture.

It seems I can only upload one file per post.
So here's the Game Capture log file.

I should also ad: I'm running the game itself in 800x600. And the stream in 480P and 30FPS.
I'm using the bitrate and buffersize that the "OBS Estimator" suggested.

If there is any more info you need, I'd be happy to provide it.

Game capture can't currently capture games that use DirectX 8 or earlier. Window capture only works without flickering if the game is running in Windowed mode.

Ah ok ty for the fast reply :D

Most old games don't have a Windowed mode setting, however there is ofc ways to "force" it.
I try that and come back with the results.
