I can't find an answer anywhere on how to disable DEP altogether! I found
this screenshot:

It shows an option to disable DEP, but I don't have such an option (using
SP2 final v.2180).

I also read that it can be disabled by changing the boot.ini, but nobody
tells exactly what to change there. Currently I have

/NoExecute=OptIn

in my boot.ini. People say one has to change /NoExecute to /Execute. But
what about the second part? Should it be

/NoExecute=OptIn

or just

=OptIn ? I don't get it! HEEEEELP!

err, sorry for the mistake above, I meant - should it be

/Execute=OptIn

or just

/Execute ?

this is my current boot.ini:

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(2)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn
C:\="Microsoft Windows 98 SE"


In order to disable DEP should I change it so that it looks like this?:

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(2)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /fastdetect /Execute
C:\="Microsoft Windows 98 SE"
