How to configure OpenGL to highest possible quality?

Turn on things like Antialiasing, Anisotropic and filter of textures

Antialiasing should be already enabled depending on OpenGL settings in your Display driver options.
Edit: Oops, may need glHint() at least with some of these: GL_POINT_SMOOTH_HINT, GL_LINE_SMOOTH_HINT, GL_POLYGON_SMOOTH_HINT

Here's something about texture filters, look for part "Texture Parameters":

To set antialiasing you have to specify some weird parameters using a gl extension when you create your device context. So essentially you have to create a window twice when you start your program

it is called multisampling, see GL_MULTISAMPLE.
