I have recently installed Windows 7 on my computer and began installing all my favourate applications including the World of Minecraft client.
The specifications of my computer:
AMD Sempron Dual Core 2300 @ 2.2GHz
nVidia GeForce 6150SE
Windows 7 Ultimate X64
I
have installed Java in both 32 and 64 bit however after logging in and
selecting a server, the World of Minecraft client throws an exception and thus I cannot
play Minecraft.
org.lwjgl.LWJGLException: Pixel format not accelerated.
I assume this has something to do with my graphics card. Anyway, here is the full log from Command Prompt;

I have the latest drivers from nVidia, I got them via Windows Update when I installed Windows 7.
I assure you there are no driver issues.

I just tried running Minecraft in Firefox:
Aparently I do not have Accelerated OpenGL. Does anybody know how I can get 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.
