Issue The game won't launch

[Porah_ju]

I tried to start Stardew but this appeared in the smapi log. I'm not sure what this means or what I can do to fix it. If anyone has any ideas pls help.

[game] The game failed to launch: Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics.NoSuitableGraphicsDeviceException: Failed to create graphics device!
---> PlatformNotSupportedException: MonoGame requires either ARB_framebuffer_object or EXT_framebuffer_object.Try updating your graphics drivers.

also, to add, I haven't played Stardew in awhile so everything needed to be updated, including Smapi. idk if I did something wrong while doing so or if that has anything to do with it.

I have been able to fix this problem by reinstalling my graphics driver.
