According to https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/graphics-drivers/000005524.html Supported APIs and Features for Intel® Graphics Drivers your 1st Gen Arrandale GPU is limited to OpenGL 2.1

It's technically impossible to increase it to OpenGL 4

Check all capabilities with following tools:

Hello tbonpc,

This is a driver most likely customized by your computer manufacturer and as Stefan3D already mentioned there is no way to modify it. I'm sorry this is not the answer you were looking for but this is the reality with this driver. Regards, Ivan U.

Worth trying, if not for being in a laptop I would just go but another video card. Thanks
