Bad video card drivers!


Minecraft was unable to start because it failed to find an accelerated OpenGL mode.

This can usually be fixed by updating the video card drivers.

Get this error when opening Minecraft. Anyone fluent in Java coding able to read this?

And I just updated my Video card drivers about 5 mins. ago :(
