All older version keep crashing.

Whenever I try to launch an older version of Minecraft before 1.6.4, the game literally just crashes before it even gets to the title screen. The oldest version I can run is Minecraft 1.6.4. All older one crash immediately upon launch and all the crash reports look the same.

Minecraft has crashed!

Minecraft has stopped running because it encountered a problem.
