Do I need drivers for my integrated graphics?

[landoverlord]

So, I'm trying to use Lunar Client but it keeps on telling me that I can't launch because Lunar Client Launch Error
"Short: Pixel format launch fail
Description: Your computer appears to have incorrect video card drivers. Visit https://lunarclient.com/pixel-format for more."

I don't know what to do about this. I just want to play Minecraft with my boys.

What are the specs for your system? Just download the drivers and install them

I'm assuming you're running windows 10:

 

Click on Start -->  Type 'System'  -->  Click on "System Information (App)"

 

Expand  "Components" -->  Click on Display

 

What is listed in the right panel under "Name"

I don't get how this was supposed to help, I know what graphics I have, and I just need help because updating my drivers failed

Try DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) and a full reinstall 

 

And at no point in the thread have you actually said what iGPU you have, or that you knew what it is.

Sorry dude, I'm just a bit frustrated. My iGPU is Intel(R) HD Graphics.

Try a driver uninstall (may need to be in safemode) and then reinstall.

 

If that doesn't help, try DDU.

What is Driver Uninstall? I'm good with most computer stuff except for drivers

As of right now, not all integrated graphics are supported (because of the updates to opengl and java which were introduced with 1.17). There will be a fix rolling out soon that will hopefully let users with integrated graphics be able to use Lunar Client again.
