    The BIOS does not have that option enabled by default. You may try to request an unlocked BIOS with that function available to adjust or one that has it enabled by default from Compal.

    I have written on the support of compal of the problem and have recieve bios version 1.19 , where apparently DEP is enabled. It is still not active by hardware :mad: . The software DEP is useless against buffer overflow. On the following emails i have no answer recieve.

    Thanks for link. I tried contacting Compal for the 1.19 and never received a reply.

    I think, FT02 and FL92 are the same, except the Display by fl92 is 15.4".

    I have make a self flashing boot cd image with BIOS v.1.19, you can burn it with Nero or other burning programs.

    Download here: http://rapidshare.com/files/153572464/bios.iso

    Here is image file for bootable USB Stick, you can save it on the usb stick with Winimage 8.1 or maybe work's too with Ultraiso 9.3. When needed, rename bios.ima to bios.img, it's the same.

    Thanks, I'll try that soon. I might do some benchmarking before and after.
