Yesterday evening, I was updating my GTX 570 driver, and accidentally launched Minecraft during the update. Since then, the standalone Minecraft.exe file will give me this error when I attempt to launch the game:
"Java™ Platform Binary SE has stopped working."
No error report details or crash dumps--just that error message, and then I have to manually close the game. The game works fine in the minecraft.net Browser, but the standalone .exe is no longer working.
This is on a computer that has recently had its hard drive replaced and a clean install of Windows. The game was working perfectly fine up until yesterday evening.
This is on Windows 7 (64-bit) with Java 7 (64-bit). I have been Googling around looking for answers, and most say the issue arises when the browser and Java conflict (32-bit vs. 64-bit, etc.), but this doesn't seem to be the issue for me, especially when it worked fine before the graphics card update.
My husband has the exact same computer build and also updated his GTX 570 driver last night, and he can run the standalone game perfectly fine. This is why I suspect it has something to do with me launching the game during the update.
If anyone can provide some insight as to how I can resolve this issue, I would be most grateful.
