Some video cards or drivers won't work with windowed 3D like MC uses.

How old is your video card?  Can any other 3D programs run windowed?

Thanks mikeh.

Its an old built in Intel 80810

Just loaded the latest driver and it now works a littl ebit but it crashes MC now.

Looks like the graphics card/driver is too old.

Dont worry about it as its just an old PC anyway
