Right click on Minecraft, and select "Run with graphics processor", then select "high-performance nVidia processor". Does the error still occur?

Hm,

Attempt to grab the driver here then,
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=22842&lang=eng&OSVersion=Windows%207%20(64-bit)*&DownloadType=%0A%09%09%09%09%09%09%09Drivers%0A%09%09%09%09%09%09

As well as the driver here for good measure,

The driver dates on your log do not reflect as being the latest.
