The laptop that I use for Daz3d is a HP Pavilion dv7-4285dx, with WIndows 7 - 64bit. My GPU is ATI Mobility Radeon HD 6370, and my CPU is Intel Core i5 M 460.
Is my laptop compatible with dForce and OpenCL? If it is, where can I get OpenCL, and how do I install it in my laptop?
The dForce item that I have is IDG dForce - Cloaks and Capes and I would like to use this for G3M and G3F models.

OpenCL is built into your graphic card driver. The 6370 supports OpenCL up to version 1.1. dForce requires OpenCL 1.2. IOW your GPU cannot do dForce. I can't find any OpenCL info on the IGP on the i5 m460 but based on its age I strongly suspect it is OpenCL 1.1 or lower too. Not that it would matter the IGP would probably take weeks to do even a basic simulation.
Where can I find a list of CPUs and GPUs that supports OpenCL 1.2 or higher?
Not aware of any. You'd have to check the GPU you want, although most anything newer than the stuff you have likely will. All modern IGP/APU's and GPU's have it.
