Hi, the version of OpenGL supported depends on the chipset model your system has. Please check in the following documents:

Your Intel® graphics controller supports OpenGL 1.4 as per first link above.

Also can i install the Intel® HD Graphics driver on the same chipset because it has some special things in there that i can for example put my graphics card to favor more to the performance rather quality.

The drivers for Intel® HD Graphics are not compatible with Intel® GMA 3000/X3000.
