I was playing Minecraft 1.9 with java 7 installed and it was working perfectly fine but I then updated to the most recent java 8 and when I tried to launch it, there was an error followed by a popup message saying :

We are sorry, but there seems to be an error while trying to render aspects of the game

It redirected me to a page and suggested I update my driver but I already checked and I'm pretty sure it's up to date. I am using intel HD graphics 3000 on a 64 bit computer running windows 10. The problem is, THIS ONLY STARTED HAPPENING AFTER GETTING JAVA 8. Can somebody please help me out on this as I have had this problem before and I just can't play with this problem in the way.

It looks something like the screenshot below

Sorry, where specifically do I go in "edit profile"?

Post DxDiag.

Thanks for replying. I am not using forge or any mods and neither am I using optifine. For your suggestion on using Jarfix or running jars from command prompt, can you be a little more specific or tell me how to do that step by step? I would really appreciate if this problem would be solved. Thanks

I have lots of general notes in my signature. Most are not relevant to your issue. Most.

I specifically asked you to post your DxDiag log. I have a note in my signature detailing how that is done, so ... Post that log!

Here is the url to my DxDiag

This Laptop is obsolete and not WIndows 10 supported. Check compatibility before upgrading Windows.

Only real "fix" is to use an OS that supports your hardware (Windows 8 or older, Linux) or use Windows 10 supported hardwre. Which in case of a Laptop means getting a new one.

How does that make any sense though? Everything works perfectly fine with Java 7 and I'm pretty sure something with Java 8 causes this to happen. What I mean is, how can upgrading to Java 8 make my PC obsolete?

By default, for 1st and 2nd generation Intel HD Graphics (yours is a 2nd gen) Windows 10, having no proper drivers (not supported) loads Windows 8 drivers in compatibility mode. These drivers happen to work sometimes, up to around Java 8 update 51. But not newer. Why? We don't know.

The chips are obsolete. Intel wants them dead. Microsoft won't bother, their recycled DirectX drivers works well enough, they don't care about OpenGL. Nobody else really cares either. It's old cheapo Intel junk.

You want that working (sort of) reliably with all versions of Java? Use a Windows version that supports the chip. Meaning Windows 8 or older.

I understand that that is an option and I can do that but is there anything that can be done asides from that like changing something in PC settings, java settings, or a custom driver? You seem pretty good at this computer stuff so I figured you may know
