Hello! Sorry if its a topic that often comes out, but I'm really desperated now...
I have browse through too many links and topic with google, and yes I have updated my drivers and it still doesn't work! I don't understand, i've tried so many things I'm tired of this now... I know Notch doesn't like Windows 8, that its not fully compatible, etc. I know that, but I keep seeing topic with people whose problems have been resolved and I know a friend that her minecraft works juuuust fine on Windows 8! I'm just sitting here trying and failing, argh!
Please help... Fyi, here's the log I get when trying to connect
