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

You got to downgrade your GeForce to 376.33, but before all of that check what version your running.

1. You dont know if they have nvidia drivers
2. There is a hotfix in the bug report https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-112780
3. Error is lack of drivers, not that nvidia bug
