I've bouht a new notebook, then i installed MineCraft, the i got this error:
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.

You have update your motherboard drivers, due to you having on board graphics, which is pretty much like not having a graphics card.
If you do have a external graphics card, post more details. http://downloadcente... Chipset Family
I am having exactly the same issue: I purchased a minecraft account for my son and he began playing in browser okay, then java updated and I've been getting the 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.
error ever since. I've tried updating everything from graphics drivers to windows to patches to untinstalling Java and reinstalling Java6 but to no avail. Out of frustration I allowed him to play it on my laptop and at this time I hadn't put 2 and 2 together regarding the Java update, so guess what happened. Yes, Java updated to 7 and now the same issue on my laptop.
Both are running Intel graphics which I understand there are issues with when it comes to openGl but if that's the case, why were both computers able to run minecraft before???!!!
My poor son has only managed to play minecraft for about an hour and I'm at my witts end.
I find it hard to believe that a game with such mediocre graphics can be so pedantic about the drivers.
If it were up to me I'd be asking for his money back but the games viral; whatta you gunna do?!
