David just so you know actually you are "enabling" the CPU to understand
the NX bit at the bios level. The name of the option is a little
misleading if you don't know exactly what it does. The wording "Execute
Disable Bit" actually means cut CPU support for the NX bit ...which job
is to disable execution on pages that should not be executed. In this
instance when you cut it on you are telling the CPU to understand
it...the Operating system has to then tell CPU to enforce the bit or
not. So really this option should be on by default ... since it does not
cause any harm.
