I recently built  computer and I installed the latest drivers. When I start Minecraft I get this error:

Update your video card drivers. What gpu do you have?

Not an expert at all on the subject, but could it be Java interfering? Wrong Java version, I mean. Honestly, whenever I've had Minecraft issues, no matter the error, I just update Java, and it works again. At one point I had the wrong Java installed - the 32bit version on my 64bit Windows - that screwed up Minecraft also...
