Minecraft Forums

Hello,
I have just tried to download Minecraft. I have been given the above error message. I have checked my drivers for updates and AMD Driver Auto Detect says I have the latest drivers installed.

Here is the error report in full.

Obviously I will greatly appreciate any help.


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.

Here is the DxDiag log.
I have just cut and pasted the Display Devices part, let me know if you need the whole log.
Thanks again...

Thanks for the fast reply. I'm one of those people that know how to use a pc but have no idea "how" the pc works. Could you please tell me how to uninstall the AMD drivers?

AMD and ATI are the same thing. A full DxDiag log is also required. May I also ask why you're using 1.5.2, and what your Minecraft username is?
