Are you sure the drivers are up to date?
Pleast post the error report.
I just double checked my drivers and I have the latest ones for my ATI Radeon 9250.
Here is the error report:

I installed it, installed the software and it works great so far.
When I try to play minecraft it logs in the green bar loads the it unexplainably closes leaving an error report behind.
The error report looks like it came from Java; if that helps.
Are you sure the drivers are up to date?

Notice the "atioglx1.dll"? That means its a problem with your graphics card drivers. Probably doesn't support OpenGL or something.
Visit the maker's website (in this case www.amd.com) and check for your graphics card. See if it supports OpenGL and other things.
In the ATI Catalyst Control Center is says OpenGL version: 6.14.10.5819
I also couldn't seem to find it on the website. Maybe I'm blind.
*I did some looking and it seems other people with this graphics card have also had similar problems.
Aparently Java and ATI don't like each other.
If anyone has any solutions I would be very grateful.
