Install it.

Alright ... Error provided by original poster indicates that Minecraft couldnt initialize graphic using required OpenGL minimum, in his original post for help Cestislife (thats a user that sudgested that catalyst suite) recognized the problem with graphic driver for his video card, or lack of it, which is the situation that was causing the issue for that issue.

As you stated that you have the same issue, may be sudgesting that you have the same video card, and that you need the same graphic driver to fix the issue, wich apparently is wrong assumption.

To fix your issue that is SIMMILAR, but not the SAME, you will need to understand the following:

Minecraft is trying to open the window and initialize graphic for game using OpenGL concept, which is provided by graphic driver software, if it fails it is indication that you don't have Graphic driver that offers ability to use OpenGL, thus neccessity to aquire one, and install it.

Since we have no idea what Graphic card you use, we can't tell for sure what driver do you actualy need, and we can only give you some sudgestions how to resolve the issue, in form like this:

Identify what video card (or graphic card) your computer uses, providing that it is still supported by the game, you need to locate adequate driver provided by the very same card manufacturer through their web-page support (and once you know what graphic card you have, will be easy to google for it), download it, install it and that should fix your issue.

There is some notable issues with that concept which you need to regard, and is left for us to assume, some old graphic cards are so outdated that Minecraft game no longer works on them, some of them just because they don't have enough hardware power, and some of them are just discontinued products, and have no updated drivers that will offer Minecraft ability to run on them.
