I was Recording a game clip but the Video froze randomly (happened every time i tried to record) whereas the video kept on going. even OBS itself freezes and then crashes. is my computer bad or the settings wrong i cant seem to understand.

1. Update Windows 10 to 1909 or 2004 if available per https://obsproject.com/blog/five-simple-tips-for-new-streamers . Your version is EOL.
After updating, follow the instructions in the link below for 1909 or newer to make sure OBS runs on the proper GPU

Laptop? Black screen when capturing? Read here first.

Depending on your Windows version and what sources you wish to use, you may need to set OBS to run on a specific GPU. Not sure which Windows version you have? Press Windows+R and run "winver". For Windows 10 1909 or newer: Open Settings and search for "Graphics Settings". Select "Classic App"...

2. To ensure that OBS Studio has the hardware resources it needs for realtime streaming and recording, we recommend disabling the "Game DVR Background Recording" feature via these instructions.
3. Run OBS as Admin
4. Display and Game Capture Sources interfere with each other. Never put them in the same scene.

If still having issues after following those instructions in that order then be aware that your log contains no recording or streaming session. Results of this log analysis are somewhat limited. Please post a link to a clean log file.
To make a clean log file, please follow these steps:

1) Restart OBS.
2) Start your stream/recording for about 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
3) Stop your stream/recording.
4) Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Send that link via this troubleshooting tool or whichever support chat you are using or use the log analyzer.

Your log shows a build number for 1903 but shows also shows 1909. Check for Windows 10 updates again.

Your Laptop has two GPUs. OBS is running on the weak integrated Intel GPU. For better performance as well as game capture being available you should run OBS on the dedicated GPU. See the guide at
