Ok so I tried to get on Minecraft today and it said 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.

So when I seen this I thought I could easily fix it by updating my video card. I went to Intel.com (My video card is Intel) and I found my video card driver. But, it said that my video card was up to date and there are no updates available...so I can't play Minecraft..any suggestions?

You say your video card is intel? I'm going to assume you're on a laptop with intels integrated graphics.
The first thing I would try is not going to intel's site, but instead going to your computer manufacturer's site, such as HP, Lenovo, Toshiba (to name a few). Intel's graphic drivers are actually watered down, generic drivers for developer use. Your manufacturer will have the update specifically for your computer.
If it is integrated graphics, and they are messed up, F0rg3r's idea won't work, and the only real fix I know of is a new PC.
Any big updates or changes done to your computer before you got this error?
I hope this helps, and thanks for tolerating the little information I had for you.
EDIT: Even if up to date, you may want to try an update anyway, it should fix any errors in the driver itself.

Why would I need a new one if it worked perfectly fine before?

You need to get a new video card then, what is your current one?
