What do you mean, more specifically, when you say that "there is no more driver" for you?

The error description quoted in that link indicates that you're not using the driver from your GPU manufacturer (Intel), but rather the built-in default drivers that come with Windows, which don't support OpenGL.
hi sorry i wasnt looking for forum when i was look into intel's website i see last driver was on 2016 and i cant download but i find it already but when i install it same problem still occurs i have win 10 and 64 bit lastest version of java i know my other pc is not good but i think its not that bad i tried lot of thing (3 or 4 hours) but i cant do it so thats why i wrote topic here

Are you sure it's the exact same problem after you installed the driver as it was before? Even if it's still crashing, it could be for a new reason.

Alternatively, could you run the OpenGL extensions viewer, and post the contents of the "Summary"?

Right. In that case, I would assume that the error window has gone from displaying the text you posted in the OP to saying something like "your video card is too old". The client requires two things from the OpenGL driver: 1) Support for at least OpenGL 3.0 (which you have) and 2) support for a core profile, as opposed to a compatibility profile. I can't tell from just that screenshot you linked, but support for core profiles wasn't made mandatory until OpenGL 3.2, so it's possible that 3.0 and 3.1 drivers only support compatibility profiles. If I'm right and that is the reason for your error, then I don't think there's much that can be done about that.

(Except switching to Linux, which does support OpenGL 3.3 on your GPU. ^^)
