I gathered some instructions from the web, but I was running into vague error messages.
Actually windows 8 is a lot like windows 7! Won’t the 7 drivers just work for 8 (granted not the best, but better than nothing?) Yes they will! Will the intel 7 drivers nicely install? No they won’t! So if you need something like OpenGL support for minecraft on windows 8, you’ll need these drivers. So you would think since windows 8 has gone though development into customer preview, Intel would be on top of things and have drivers out… Well, not yet. 32-bit probably won’t have to follow the second half of this guide This guide is specifically made to overcome a obstacle that 64-bit windows have. This might work for other drivers they have, but I don’t know. To be specific, Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family (GM45). In my laptop I have an integrated intel graphics. Well this was something that I was trying to fix for days, so I could finally play a game or two. IF none of that worked for you, here is the old guide. If your chipset is not in that link I still suggest that you search the windows eightforums first. These drivers are made by people much smarter than I and will most likely work the best for you. Next “Testr” from the comments provide a link to some preedited drivers on windows eightforums.Before modding the files, just try it! Hopefully you’ll get lucky. This probably dependent on the specific installers for each chipset.
