No GPU driver available
Your GPU is using the Microsoft Basic Render Driver, which is a pure software render. This will cause very high CPU load when used with OBS. Make sure to install proper drivers for your GPU. To use OBS in a virtual machine, you need to enable GPU passthrough.
Warning

You are running an old version of OBS Studio (29.0.2). Please update to version 30.2.3 by going to Help -> Check for updates in OBS or by downloading the latest installer from the downloads page and running it.
Warning
Windows 10 21H2 (EOL)
You are running Windows 10 21H2, which has not been supported by Microsoft since June 2023. We recommend updating to the latest Windows release to ensure continued security, functionality, and compatibility.

Info
Browser Not Accelerated
Unfortunately, browser source hardware acceleration is not compatible with your system/graphics card. Because of this, browser sources will use extra CPU and may stutter. Try to use as few browser sources as possible.
