I Have A Problem...

[jacobems]

Ok so I have a really crappy graphics card but if I set the troubleshooting down in control panel it will allow me to play the download version of minecraft. Not so with the technic pack. When I try to use it it gives me an error saying to update my graphics driver. I have the latest driver for my card. This is the error:

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.

Any way to fix this?(besides getting a new card which eventually i'll do)

Also just as a side note it doesn't matter what pack i'm using.

You have 2GB of RAM, and the Technic Launcher, iirc, defaults to using 2GB (I'd have to re-download it to confirm that). Try lowering that (in the launcher window under Options) to 512MB and see if you still get the error.
