ElCapitan8866 Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 Regarding disabling DEP: Have you tried disabling the NX option in your BIOS? If this is disabled in BIOS, Windows won't use DEP. As I understand it, DEP is supposed to prevent software from potentially harming my computer. If I disable DEP that way, wouldn't it leave my computer completely vulnerable?

You would certainly be leaving the door unlatched and the key under the doormat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
