I just tried installing the latest version of Forge on my computer, but it has an error message: "BAD VIDEO CARD DRIVERS!"
I deleted META-INF, updated my drivers, and started with a clean MC installation, I have no mods installed, but it still says that the OpenGL fails to work.
Here is the MC error mesage:
Bad video card drivers!
-----------------------
Minecraft was unable to start because it failed to find an accelerated OpenGL mode.
This can usually be fixed by updating the video card drivers.

Before adding FML, MC always worked for me without the this error.
Thanks for the help.
