Minecraft Forums

I recently got a new laptop(some sort of Lenovo with a core i3 and 4GB of ram) and I keep running out of memory and crashing. I downloaded MC Patcher to fix it, but that didn't make a dent. I unpatched my jar, but it's still going strong. It's weird... Block will be the wrong colors(like a magnetized tv), textures will appear in the wrong places, and even the start screen will mess up. I can't find anything with the same problem. I would post the crash report, but it doesn't show up...

Any ideas?

Here is the error code.


Minecraft has crashed!

What us your graphics card? These other things don't matter too much.

Also, reinstall Java

Did it and didn't fix the problem.

This is likely a Windows 8 related issue. When does it seem to crash? Does it crash when trying to open an existing world or mid session or what? Did your GPU have an official Windows 8 driver with OpenGL support or did you force an install of a Win7 driver? If you're running a Windows 8 driver you might try forcing Win8 to run a Win7 driver for your GPU and see if your issue is resolved. There is a tutorial here for that: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1614295-fixwindows-8-open-gl/
