Minecraft wont run at all because of some accelerated opengl error. It used to run fine, it runs fine if i use the technic launcher, but the normal launcher doesn't work at all. I get 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.

I have intel 82865g graphics.

I updated using the intel website, and when i tried yo move hardware acceleration down, my whole computer just slowed down.
I managed to get it working with a .bat file with: java -Xmx800m -jar minecraft.jar
