I have recently purchased/installed minecraft on my PC for my son... by was presnted with an error to do with "rendering aspects of the game"...

In short, it asked me to update the graphics driver. But I can't seem to find details of the graphics driver to install, because i think it's generic (i.e. i don't even think my PC even has a separate graphics board).

I'm new to this kind of stuff, but managed to copy this info if it helps...

The error report from minecraft:

The DXDiag results say you don't even have a graphics card

Open DeviceManager and find your "Display Adapter". Right-click on it and find the update driver button
