Minecraft Forums

The following is the error i am encountering... I have checked my drivers and all are up to date.. I have played previously on this same machine not sure what has changed but could sure use some help as I can no longer play the game i love.



Bad video card drivers!
-----------------------

Minecraft was unable to start because it failed to find an accelerated OpenGL mode.
This can usually be fixed by updating the video card drivers.
