Basic questions about download versions

Hello! I am very new to Qt and just wanted to try out the framework with VS 2010 on my Win 7 machine. But right on the download page ( http://qt-project.org/downloads ) I was already confused. There are 2 versions that seem suited for me: Qt 5.2.0 for Windows 32-bit (VS 2010, 570 MB) and Qt 5.2.0 for Windows 32-bit (VS 2010, OpenGL, 569 MB) Whats the difference? And why is there no explanation on the download site? A little info like “the OpenGL version provides blabla” would be very helpful! Second: Since I did not know which downlink link was right I chose the Qt Online Installer for Windows. After everything was installed I started QCreater and tried to compile a sample project. Unfortunately the compiling stopped with an error: The compiler could not find some OpenGL ES header. I had no idea how to fix it and having such a first impression of Qt is very frustrating. Shouldn’t it just run out of the box? I don’t even know what I could have made wrong!
