(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I recently wiped my computer and installed windows 7 home premium 32 bit. Minecraft worked fine on my 32 bit Vista but now when I try to run Minecrafr I get this error



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.

then check to make sure your card is compatible withe the version of windows you have. if that fails, your best bet is to call the card manufacturer and ask what the problem is, or email them or even windows.
