Bad Video Card Driver Minecraft Error Windows 7?

Hi, i recently downloaded minecraft on my brand new HP windows 7 laptop and when i try to run it ( in browser and also dowloaded version) I get the following 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.

I have 8GB of RAM and have tried updating my graphics cards through windows update which told me i have the latest version, and also through AMD.com which auto detected my driver and told me to download some "catalyst mobility 64-bit" driver which wouldnt download due to incompatible hardware/software on my computer. It also said the version of my graphics adapter is not supported. Please help me, i played minecraft frequently on my old computer and would like to be able to on my new one.|||Make sure you have the current driver for your video card. Download latest Minecraft client if not already present and rename the downloaded Minecraft.exe to Minecraft.jar.Open a command prompt and type: java -Xmx800m -jar "C:\***\Minecraft.jar". The quote is where your Minecraft.jar is in.
