OpenGL Error

[Five]

Hello. Does anyone know how to fix this 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.

Update your video card drivers/get a new video card.

How? Do I need to be an administrator? I use my school laptop.

What OS and how old is it? Some computers require you to download new video card drivers(idk where, google it) if they are old enough. And some simply just have old video card drivers.

Windows XP and I'm not sure how old it is.

Look at the error:

You need to update the computer's video card driver's (Or get the school to do it).
