I've got a problem with OpenGL acceleration, which is requested to play Minecraft (I use version 1.5.2). The program sends an error page that say the graphics driver has to be updated (I have Intel G33/G31 chipset family) but I'm using the latest version of the driver and the issue hasn't been resolved. That game worked properly some months ago, so I've got a software problem, not an hardware one.
The Minecraft error message is:

Hello Ryk,
In this particular situation, you could uninstall current graphics driver and then reinstall it from here https://downloadcenter.intel.com/ Intel® Download Center.
Another option is to use the http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/detect Intel® Driver Update Utility
You may try the solution suggested on this third parties video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btYfWkTS9aE How To Fix Minecraft OpenGL Error Windows 7/xp/vista - YouTube*
Please let me know the results.

Hi Cesar, thanks for your answer.
I'm not able to fix my problem yet... I reinstalled my updated graphic drivers but Mincraft still doesn't work.
I don't trust opengl32.dll downloaded from the site suggested by the video on Youtube you wrote.
