Hey, I'm having trouble with the "Pixel format not accelerated" crash issue. I have an Intel video card driver. To fix the problem I downloaded the Intel(R) Driver Update Utility, it gave me a new update to download; however, I could not download this because it gave me an
unknown error. When I scanned the video card driver using windows, I was told the driver is up to date, that is why I believe I got the unknown
error. Why does minecraft still crash, if my drivers are up to date? Here is the DxDiag Report, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23661226/
You may have issues running newer versions of Minecraft (Your Q45, isn't on the unsupported list but runs series 4) as your are running older Integrated graphics. Which are 4 Series. 4 Series graphics are not supported in minecraft from 1.7.10 and up.
There is nothing that can be done if you are unable to access 1.7.10+ versions. For this a new PC with newer hardware is required

Thanks.
Downgrade to Windows 7, get a new GPU if you have a desktop pc, or play in another laptop. Your GPU is not supported past Windows 7
