Question / Help Streaming Starcraft2 and getting fps drops

Hi! I've been attempting to stream SC2 for quite some time now and I've had to reduce my settings extremely low to get a semi-playable game. I am currently running on an asus laptop without an nvidia graphics card (its intel hd 3000) so I'm not sure how I'm supposed to go about my settings after reading the stickied post about laptops. I have tried to enable aero, but I can't seem to figure out how. I currently have "disable aero" unchecked. Are my computer's specs even good enough to attempt streaming?

Here is my log file.
