Hello, I have an issue about the drivers for Windows 8, Windows is using is the newest driver but i can't play minecraft
I use Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset Family and I tried to go to Intel and get the drivers for Windows 7 and install them over the newer drivers but it didn't work
Here's my error log
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.

I think I found a solution. Go to Windows Update and preform the updates, and make sure u set it to do not auto update. In one of those updates it fixed it. But do NOT let it auto-update or else you will be screwed again. This worked on my Win8 Computer, and it is on Youtube too.
If you have an Intel driver then basically intel did not launch a driver for windows 8 that supports OpenGL
I Downloaded a RoyalBNA Driver and it works fine http://teknogods.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=8283
