Can someone please help??





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.

Do you really only have 1GB of memory on your machine? What is your video card?

You might try launching with less memory by creating a bat file or using magic launcher and telling it to use 512 memory.

As long as you verified that you have current drivers at either your PC vendors support site or at intel , then you might check out what worked for the OP at the end of this thread to see if it helps:

Im trying to update my Graphic card to OpenGL 2 but it seems not to work...
I think my Graphic card can't take the newer version of Minecraft.

All you need for minecraft is something like OpenGL 1.5, as long as you don't want to run Advanced OpenGL.

That is all built into the video drivers usually, if a GPU can support an OpenGL version then it will. As GPU models get older sometimes they can no longer support a higher version.

However there have been a lot of people with this OpenGL issue lately and in each case there are a few different possible solutions. Several times it wasn't the drivers at all but something with the launcher. Some have found trying a different launcher helped, such as in this thread: http://www.minecraft...pdated-drivers/
