    Refuses to install due to NX, even though it's present in BIOS


    Hello there!

    I have a Samsung N150P netbook that I am trying Windows 10 x64 on. I should note that I already installed Windows 8.1 and even upgraded to Windows 10 in past before downgrading to Windows 7 x86.

    Now while installing it using the GUI installer, the installer shows me this error,
    You can't install Windows 10 because your processor doesn't supports NX
    So I then tried to install it manually by burning the iso file on usb and booting on that, but I am stuck with blinking cursor that doesn't does anything. I have checked my BIOS and it does has a option called EDB (Execute Disable Bit). It's enabled by default and I tried to run the installer again after switching that option on and off, but no changes at all. Same issues happend with Windows 8.1 too.

    So, How i can get it installed on my laptop? Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks

    I downloaded the iso from Microsoft's official site. I currently have Windows 7 x86 installed, though my PC supports x64. I have tried installed Windows 8.1 x86 and Windows 10 x64, none of them installed.

    :)

    This PC's processor doesn't support a critical feature (NX)."


    Good suggestion, but ... It's a 32-bit machine

    Speccy:
    - Machine Variables
    --- PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE: x86
    --- PROCESSOR_IDENTIFIER: x86 Family 6 Model 23 Stepping 10, GenuineIntel

    Refuses to install due to NX, even though it's present in BIOS

    Can't install Windows 8.1 on PC due to NX, even though it's supported in BIOS

    Hello there,

    I have Samsung N150P netbook with currently Windows 7 installed. Back before I installed Windows 8.1 and 10 on this machine, and it worked well. But I switched back to Win 7 due to lack of drivers.

    Now I wanna install Win 8.1 since I found all the necessary drivers. But now I am facing a issues. When installing the OS using USB from bootmenu, I am greeted with a blinking cursor loop that never ends. So I tried to install it from Win7 using GUI installer,
    but greeted with this error

    "You can't install Windows 8.1 because your processor doesn't support NX"

    Now I have checked my BIOS, and the option for EDB (Executable Disable Bit) is present and is
    enabled by default. But just to be sure I enabled and disabled it and so forth tested it to see if it gets pass the error message. But it shows same error from GUI installer and boot menu installer shows same blinking cursor.

    Any help will be appreciated

    I used Rufus to burn the ISO on 16GB USB drive. Tried installing x86 Windows 8.1. PC spec is Intel Atom N550 and 2GB RAM with Intel GMA 3150 GPU.

    Thanks!
