I haven't gotten Minecraft yet, but I keep getting an error every time I play the Demo and Classic that says:

org.lwjgl.LWJGLException: Pixel format not accelerated.

Can anyone tell me as to what this means and how I can fix it?

Either

A: Graphics card is not supported

B: Graphics card drivers are not installed.

C: Outdated Graphics Card drivers.

D: All the above

Solution, find computer specs using Speccy and then post here.
