When I open minecraft and log in it opens an error and crashes saying "Bad video card drivers!" please help anyone know how to fix it?



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.
