[anthony7128]

Everytime I want to play minecraft I log in and it gives me some error saying my video card is bad and it needs to be updated
When i check it, it was fully patched o_o

im also on windows 7 32 bit and all my drivers are fully updated

well i just updated it and started minecraft and i got this




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.

GPU? my display adapters is ATI Raedon 2100 (Microsoft corporation - WDDM )
and ATI raedon HD 3450 (Microsoft corporation - WDDM 1.1 )

[izarooni]

yeah it did

[Dakota]

It all mainly depends on what graphics card you have you can't just download some random one and the problem will be fixed like that.. you have to find out which one you have and you can find your updates for that graphics card online.

What is your gaming CPU Rig?
Update the Java plugins?

Post your GFX card if you still want help.
