From the release notes:
This is minor driver update for 2nd Generation Intel Core processors with Intel HD Graphics.
This driver includes the game performance improvements added to our previous major driver update which showed up to 37% FPS gain on ULV platforms and select shipping games when compared to earlier driver (15.22.50.64.2509 compared to 15.22.1.2361). 2nd Generation Intel Core processors continue to offer the best mainstream gaming experience with popular titles released in 2011 playable out of the box.
This driver exposes OpenGL 3.1 API (GLSL version: 1.40) with 116 OpenGL extensions. The max texture size is 8192 pixels.
