So after reading about this, it means that the game can't find OpenGL and either my video card is too old or my drivers don't support OpenGL. However, this isn't the case and I still can't fix it.
I have a Nvidia GTX680 and minecraft was running fine on the 310.70 drivers, then I got a balloon from the Nvidia control panel telling me the 310.90 drivers were released so naturally i went and updated them. Now I get this error:
LWJGL Version: 2.4.2

It doesn't matter what version of LWJGL I use. I tried reverting back to the 310.70 drivers and it does the same thing. I tried reverting to many other driver versions and it does the same thing. I tried doing a system restore and it does the same thing.
My system specs:
Windows 8 Pro
AMD FX 8150 (8 core) clocked at 5Ghz
32G of G.Skill 1600mhz
Raid0 Hybrids
Nvidia GTX680
Hope someone has a solution for this, because i haven't been able to find any :\
