My laptop needs charging, but my charger is broke, so I'm using this very, heavy, old fashion, computer. I tried many times to downloaded Java, and it never worked, but finally I got it working.
I thought I could go back on Minecraft since I haven't played in months, but when I went on there a
thing popped up on the windows and said ' Failed to start Minecraft org. lwjgl. LWJGLException: Pixel format not accelerated' What is that suppose to mean? What should I do? I'm not sure, please help me!
Thank you!

Maybe i can help you... I think there is a new update from Java Because without java/New java you can't start Minecraft/ World of Minecraft
Since her computer is probably so old, she has an outdated graphics card. The only way to fix this is by either finding her charger or getting a new graphics card for the old fashioned computer.
im trying to fix this computer for my bro to play,
ik i need a new graphics card, which we have,
but is there a easier solution?
First, try updating your graphics card's drivers. Then, if you are playing Classic, try playing with the World of Minecraft client, which has a patch for the GL error.
update graphics drivers... if that dun work then ur graphics card S U X
I also get this problem, but I found a solution to it. I do not know why it works for be, but it does. The following does the trick (for me at least):
1. Unplug your computer from the internet
2. Start minecraft
3. Plug your computer to the internet, wait for connection
4. Log in as usual.
I do not know why it works. I have this laptop with me on trips, therefore I played minecraft most times without been connected to the internet and therefore minecraft worked on/off for me.

Your graphics card on your heavy old fashioned computer is outdated and is incapable of playing Minecraft.
