I recently updated to Windows 10, and when I downloaded Minecraft and opened it, it crashed. Here's the crash report.

Also, if this helps at all, here it is.

LAPTOP SPECS

Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2410m @2.3 GHz

Intel(R) HD Graphics 3000

4 GB Ram

64 Bit

Windows 10

I noticed that my CPU is not being detected by Minecraft. Is this the problem? If so, how do I fix it?

(I also tried Minecraft on my brother's laptop with the same specs, but instead of 4GB of ram, he has 8GB of ram, and it worked like a charm.)

Follow the instructions here: http://hopper.minecraft.net/help/pixel-format-not-accelerated/support/#dxdiag

Edit: If you only have a Intel HD Graphics 3000, then its the following:

Unfortunately, your graphics card isnt supported on Windows 10 as Intel has not released drivers for your graphics card as its too old. You will need to either downgrade to Windows 8.1, get a new graphics card(If you have a desktop PC) or play in another PC
