If you want help you're going to have to provide lots of info. Like what is your hardware, what is your operating system, what version of GZDoom/LZDoom/whatever you're using, what mods you're loading, how you're loading it, what you've already tried for fixing the problem, and anything else that is even remotely relevant to the problem.

We can't magically figure out what it is if you're going to be vague, and if we feel like you're just wasting our time with guessing games we will act like that's what you're really doing and won't help you.

While I'm not a developer, it looks like the crash is occurring in your graphics driver, or at least I'm assuming that's what ig4icd32.dll is. You appear to be running Windows 8; does Windows Update give you any newer drivers for your graphics hardware? (See Rachael's post for further information; I have been proven wrong.)

This is correct.

However, this is not the correct solution. The best solution is to check your laptop vendor for an updated driver and install it. If it's more than a year out of date, then check Intel's web page, instead.

Also, the screenshot shows window decorations and a taskbar reminiscent of Windows 10. It's possible he had to use _mental_'s manifest updater in order to get the Intel drivers to work - and using that will cause GZDoom to report the incorrect Windows version.
