Will be inactive

Hi everyone,

I have been inactive for the past week or so because my computer keeps having an error when I try to start Minecraft. The error is still happening so I am going to be inactive for another couple days until I find the appropriate driver to update to. In-game name is CinematicalGFX. Hope to play with you all once more soon.

Regards

Here is a screenshot of the error I tend to receive when I attempt to join a server:

I read up on this earlier and people were explaining how sometimes it can be the cause of the graphics driver you use and perhaps you should update to a newer one. Right now I'm using Catalyst. So if you know any good recent ones that are not too much money or are even free, please say so.

Thank you.

In most cases it's best to stick to those drivers provided by the manufacturer. They are free, you won't get into trouble if you happen to have a warranty case and they know what they're doing.
As "catalyst" suggests that you're using a AMD GPU (hopefully), I suggest to download the latest driver directly from their website.

You can lock this if you'd like.
