[Hapsburg AH] - Austrians Die, Spanish Survive

See above. The Spanish and Austrian Hapsburg lines flip genetic issues leading up to the OTL Spanish War of Succession, leaving the Austrian Hapsburg line suffering from infertility and imbecility. In this ATL, we get an Austrian Succession War in 1701 rather than a Spanish one.

How does this Austrian War of Succession shake out for all interested parties? Who plays the role of the OTL Bourbons in claiming Austria's territories? How does a Hapsburg Spain continue on from 1701? What about the Hapsburg territories in Italy?

Who plays the role of the OTL Bourbons in claiming Austria's territories?

If the Bourbons somehow play the role of Bourbons and get the Austrian lands, it is going to be hard for them to stay friendly with the Ottoman Empire.
