I am trying to run Minecraft for the first time. I got to the launchers, but it crashed while loading the game. I am running Windows 8.1 on a Toshiba Satellite A665D-S1575. I could not find any newer drivers for my video card. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Moderator1. downgrade windows to 8 or lower
2. install a newer graphics card
3. attempt the workaround here http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/support/unmodified-minecraft-client/1868881-windows-8-lack-of-updated-graphics-drivers-solved#c8
The workaround may not work and if you try it be it on your own head.
