If your laptop has a mobile Nvidia video card, then use Nvidia ShadowPlay. Otherwise, you can use Fraps, DxTory, Mirillis, Bandicam, OBS, etc.

some people recommend other programs however this is fine for all around use

It is called Hypercam

Download the following (only 3 MB)

Instructions:

On the Screen Area Tab: Press "Select Region" to select the game area on your laptop. Only checkmark Iconize Hypercam Window to Task Bar

On the AVI Tab: Frames per second: 30. Leave else default

There are other options for sound and such which depends on your computer and cursor options. I gave you the basics to get started.

Hypercam is terrible for recording gameplay. Tried it on my old crappy laptop and Bandicam was just way better.

IMHO Hypercam has earned its bad reputation. Bandicam works okay. Ilos is another good option, although you can only get a thirty day trial version for free.
