Technologically retarded person needing help updating Graphics Card.

I was going to try out Minecraft for the first time, when I received the error "Pixel format not accelerated".
After using Google, I found out that I should update my graphics card.
This is where all hell broke loose.
I asked my friend for help, and so far I have found out I have a Radeon X1700 SE graphics card.
After being unable to find the drivers for that, I found someone saying I have a Radeon X1650 series graphics card.
I then also had to find out what version of windows I had, and it was apparently 32-bit, and Vista (Although already obvious).
I downloaded it, and I still can't start Minecraft because of "Pixel format not accelerated".

I would greatly appreciate your help.

Thank you, I will try to do that.
I'll return later to confirm if it worked or not.
Thanks, I think it worked :v:
I had some hassles that happened along the line, and made it all take an eternity... however I think it finally worked now.
