If the Data Execution Prevention feature can be used with your operating system, then by selecting Enabled you can protect your computer against attacks by such viruses and worms. If after choosing Enabled you find that an application program does not run correctly, select Disabled and reset the setting. If you select Enabled, a Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) can utilize the additional hardware capabilities provided by Virtualization Technology. Intel VT-d is Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O. When enabled, a VMM can utilize the platform infrastructure for I/O virtualization.

Note: If you set the Intel AT module activation to Permanently Disabled, you will be unable to enable this setting again. This option is displayed only when the anti-theft function is activated. The Intel anti-theft suspend screen will be displayed at next boot to enter the suspend mode. 76 User Guide
