I'm clueless here. I've seen this issue in the past with other screen capture software on multiple computers was with motion video. The fix for me on Windows 7 64 Bit machine (haven't tested on a Win 10 computer) was to install direct x sdk from Microsoft site. Which is here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=6812 After installing. Navigate to here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2010)\Utilities\bin Go into both x64 and x86 folders up dxcpl.exe (spelling?) And there's a little gui. Click on the DirectDraw tab and uncheck Use hardware acceleration. Best of luck!
