The support for pixel / vertex shaders has nothing to do with the motherboard, it has to do with the graphics card (or its GPU, to be more precise). You need to find out which graphics card (or integrated graphics GPU) that your computer uses. Then, you can look up what kind of shader support it has.

With appropriate driver support, the 946GX does support OpenGL 2.0, which should have the shader support you need. Go to the Intel web site support page for these GPUs and see what they say.
