My computer does not have an OpenGL 2.1 graphics card. Thus, whenever I attempt to start Minecraft, it crashes then I get prompted with "pixel format not accelerated." Is there any way to fix this? I don't mind playing an older version of the game.
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!
Unfortunately your computer is prehistoric and really doesn't meet Minecraft's system requirements.
New computer time!

I've been planning on an upgrade since I got it. http://a.co/d/c0MW1Ky In the mean time, I've been working on lots of programming and web application development. Would you by any chance know how to use software rendering instead of GPU rendering? I'm not sure if OpenGL even has a software rendering mode.
