So I recently installed Windows 8, and have tried to start Minecraft from the desktop. When I start it, it starts normally until boom, my graphics card drivers are not supported. I went to intel.com and got my drivers again and still they are not working. Halp?

Intel is lagging behind on releasing win 8 drivers that support opengl. Last I looked they only had support for a limited amount of graphics cards.
