In this video, I show how to update your OpenGL implementation to version 4.2. For this to work you will need a DirectX 11 card which are the 500 series if you use Nvidia. First download and install the latest drivers of the graphics card. Then download the Glew source code. Next, compile the Glew source using Mingw and install. Finally, use the newly compiled Glew library to test the GL implementation using the .cpp program I uploaded at

A batch file for compiling Glew:
