C1/C2 Enhanced Mode (Available when supported by the CPU)
Set to Enabled to enable Enhanced Halt State (C1) and Stop Clock State (C2) to
lower CPU voltage/frequency to prevent overheat. The options are Enabled and
Disabled. Note: please refer to Intel’s web site for detailed information.
Execute Disable Bit (Available when supported by the CPU)
Set to Enabled to allow the processor to classify areas in memory where an ap-
plication code can execute and where it cannot, and thus preventing a worm or a
