Ok, so I just attempted to play on Minecraft to build a spawn for this guy and it says 'Update Graphics Driver'. I am useless with this stuff, can anyone tell me how to find out what graphic driver I am on and how I can update it.

Thanks

Somehow I got it again, but the thing is is that I have an added driver on and not the original so it doesn't know what driver I have. Cus I managed to play on Minecraft for 5 hours yesterday and now its stopped again.

A graphics driver (seems like an integrated one in your laptop) is the card (or chip for laptops) that is responsible for video. I'm not sure what this means but, obviously you must update it.
Question: Did it happen mid-game?
Question: Does it happen on a specific server, or just minecraft in general does that?
EDIT Fixed

I'm not sure if this is where you're supposed to get Intel drivers, but hopefully you can find what you're looking for here. Dxdiag should tell you the exact card name.

Which graphics card do you have?
(If you don't know, I'm sure Google can help you figure it out).

I tried that, but I have one that was installed which is not the original so it can't find it.

I don't know if this will help you, but whenever I need to update my drivers I use this to find out which ones need to be updated!
