The game crashed whilst initializing game Error: org.lwjgl.LWJGLException: Pixel format not accelerated

This the URL for the Ubuntu Pastebin of my system:
and on the left side there is a blue button click it and it will download a graphic media accelerator. I did this and it fixed the same error Ii had. follow the installation instructions. At the end it will ask you to restart your PC to take effect click "yes". After that let the pc sit for a minute then try running minecraft. I hope this helps wish you luck. -ThatOneName
Unfortunately your graphics hardware is not supported on Windows 10, you will need to downgrade back to Windows 7, upgrade your graphics hardware (Not possible on a laptop), or use another computer to play Minecraft.
But even running windows 7 the computer is below the requirements for minecraft so may not run or will run badly.
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
Say something silly, Laugh 'til it hurts, Take a risk, Sing out loud, Rock the boat, Shake things up, Flirt with disaster, Buy something frivolous, Color outside the lines, Cause a scene, Order dessert, Make waves, Get carried away, Have a great day!
Additionally due to the specific hardware you have, even with the latest drivers on Windows 7, you will not be able to run above version 1.7.2 of the game.
