OpenGL* compatibility

The integrated graphics controller of the Intel® G45/G43/G41/Q43/Q45 Express Chipsets and Mobile Intel® 4 Series Express Chipset Family supports hardware acceleration for OpenGL* applications in 16-bit and 32-bit color depths. The latest Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator drivers provide support for the OpenGL version 2.0.

For optimal performance of OpenGL* applications, exit any background application or program running in Windows*.

To check whether a newer graphics driver is available for your graphics controller, use the Intel® Driver Update Utility. If the online utility displays a message that a customized computer manufacturer graphics driver is detected, click here for additional information.
