Just loaded MC on a computer I refurbished. Got 1.7.9 loaded up and every time I fire it up, the game gets as far as sitting on the Mojang load screen for a while....then crashes out. Here is the log the crash produces.

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.
