I downloaded the launcher (from www.minecraft.net) after purchasing and registering. I run windows 7 ultimate (YES, i downloaded the windows .exe version). I start the launcher and it works fine. I sign in, works fine. I hit play, and all seems normal, until the Mojang screen pops up. Stays up for maybe 3 or 4 seconds, then it will crash back to the launcher. Does this over and over again. Ive tried re-downloading minecraft, re-installing java, several things. Error log reads as follows:
