Various 3d games are crashing on me would directx be the problem?

I've got a laptop that is:
Vista Home Premium 32bit (6.0, Build 6000)
Intel Core 2 at 1.73GHz
2GB RAM
Mobile Intel(R) 945GM/GU Express Chipset Family (Intel GMA 950)
When i go under DXdiag it says i'm running directx 10 (which i think intel
doesn't support yet)
My specs are well above the requirements for the games but some have low
framerates or just all of a sudden crash and close without any dialog
indicating an error (while nothing else other than that game crashes).
