Why wont opengl install?

PMick — Sun, 01 Nov 2015 15:11:05 GMT

I have just come into the possession of a Dell Insperon 14 as a temporary laptop till I get the money together for a better one.

I've had to reinstall Windows 7 (the guy I bought it off installed win 8.1 and I just don't get on with it) and have gone through all the usual driver updates and everything is at it's most recent but OpenGL hasn't installed in any form. The laptop has a Mobile intel 4 series chipset family.

Can anyone help? really wanting to get back into playing some games and the rest of the internet just says update top the latest drivers and that just hasn't worked
