Heyo guys, Timber910 here.

Lately, i've been running into a bit of a problem lately. For some reason, every time I try running MC, it will close the launcher and bring up the Mojang logo like normal, and then suddenly it closes and brings up the launcher and says the game crashed. Here is the major part of the report that pretty much should be stating the problem, however I don't understand code.

Now, i've looked at 2 other forums trying to figure it out and see if there was any similar situations. I did find one that seemed pretty much identical, however when I followed the steps, I ended up with the same result.

Can anyone help me with this? I would like to get back to MC and start recording again.

The Intel 4 Series (and older) video cards are unable to play 1.7.4 and future versions of Minecraft. You will need to buy a new video card or computer to play new versions.
For now, you can still play 1.7.2 or older versions of the game.

To change your game to a different version, start the launcher. Select Edit Profile. In the "Use Version" dropdown menu, select the game version you want. Then click Save Profile.

Hi,

It seems that you're using the Intel 965 Express Chipset, which is known to have issues with OpenGL.

You'll have to workaround the problem by using 1.7.2 (you won't be able to play future/current versions) as explained above or see the instructions here: http://hopper.minecraft.net/help/references/intel-4-series-chipsets/

Thanks for information and it does help. I got it working, atleast now I can record again, even if it is 1.7.2, but .2 and .4 are essentially the same, so it doesn't bug me that much. Thanks for your help, and if I need to, i'll go and buy a new video card for this thing so then I play on future versions.
