I tried installing Minecraft on my Surface Tablet.
This is what I get after trying to run Minecraft.exe:
Long error message but Last 3 lines:

I use a Surface Pro, so more powerful than the RT ?
I looked up installing OpenGL. It led me to this website:http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/detect/graphics Product Detected Intel® HD Graphics 4000 Current Driver Installed 9.17.10.3062 A customized computer manufacturer driver is installed on your computer. The Intel Driver Update Utility is not able to update the driver. Installing a generic Intel driver instead of the customized computer manufacturer driver may cause technical issues. Contact your computer manufacturer for the latest driver for your computer.
Does this look like a no go with OpenGL for me ??
I don't know how to fix your problem, but I run Minecraft on a Surface Pro all the time. Surface Pro runs on full blown windows 8, no RT, guys. If all else fails, do a fresh install of the OS and reinstall Java and Minecraft.

Allegory how did you manage to put it on your tablet? i run a surface pro as well but yet when i tried to install it it says i have to search for an app that will run minecraft but i just got it a few days ago... any tips???and im trying to put 1.6.2 on my tablet
Dudes, surface pro has openGL. Why else can I play "star trek online" or "anarchy online"?
No, the costom manufacturers drivers are all thats needed. might i add that it plays those two game pretty nicely.
I think the problem is strictly with windows 8. They probubly had to take out some of the programming that comes
with the windows OS so that it could be mobile.
As for windows RT, I keep saying this on any forum I find that is having problems with this particular version of windows, RT is designed only for apps from the windows store. It will not execute executables that you can open with other windows OS, including windows 8. I tell you what, the biggest mistake microsoft made was creating windows RT. Until I expirienced it myself, I thought all versions of windows were convienient to say the least.
All versions of minecraft below 1.6.x run on windows 8 for some reason but not anything at or above.

From bold sources, there may never be a "port" for it at all.
